Nevada. Nevada has no state income tax — military pay is never taxed here.
SCRA. Under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act your military pay is taxed by the state you are domiciled in, not by the one your duty station sits in. Being assigned to an installation in Nevada does not by itself change which state may tax you, and it does not create a filing obligation where you are stationed.
TRICARE West. Care at both installations in Nevada falls under the TRICARE West region, administered by TriWest Healthcare Alliance — enrollment and claims run through 888-TRIWEST (874-9378).
