Please refer to How to forward SMS/MMS text messages from your iPhone to your iPad, iPod touch or Mac.


Excerpt:


* Don't see the Text Message Forwarding setting on your iPhone? Go to Settings > Messages, turn off iMessage, turn it back on, tap Send & Receive, tap Use Your Apple ID for iMessage, then sign in with the same Apple ID used on your other devices.


Try that.
