We will soon be moving from GA to another state, my husband is Army, and I'm not sure what state we will be in.

To my knowledge there are no unschooling specific laws in any state.
Unschooling is one of the many methods to home school children; it is an educational philosophy.
Home school laws for each state can be found at:
http://www.hslda.org/
Unschooling information:
http://www.unschooling.com/
Home school information for military families:
http://www.militaryhomeschoolers.com/
This site contains general home schooling rules, as well as home school information specifically for military families in the USA, and overseas.

As others said, unschooling laws come under homeschooling laws... unschooling is a form of homeschooling. There are some states that make it easy to unschool, while others make it more difficult. Take NY for example-- they have several required subject areas, you have to submit and IEP (individualized education plan) at the start of the year and quarterly reports, you have to log educational hours-- it's really hard to unschool under stringent accountabilty requirements, though I'm sure there are those who are creative enough to figure out a way to do it.

There is no such thing as unschooling laws. You would just have to see what your future state's homeschooling laws are like and see how unschooling can fit in with it. Or ask in an unschooling Yahoo Group--there are bound to be people from all over the US who will tell you how you can unschool in any state.

You don't need unschooling laws per se, you would follow the typical homeschooling laws, as stated by www.hslda.org.
Then make adjustments on your paperwork for unschooling. It's quite easy. You might contact yahoo unschooling groups in your particular area once you settle in to see what they suggest because homeschooling laws do vary from state to state, and they'll have suggestions on how to tweak paperwork.

try www.hslda.org. It breaks the homeschooling laws down state by state.

Check with them or your local HSing group, you might be able to teach under the laws of your home of record. I am not clear on that though.
EDIT:
I found the answer to my own question.....
