License and tax basics in Texas

Texas is in the Nurse Licensure Compact, so an RN or LPN/LVN with a multistate license from another compact state can work here without a new license. Nurses whose home state is not in the compact apply for a Texas license by endorsement.

Texas does not tax wage income at the state level, so take-home pay is higher than the same gross pay in a state that does.
