If you have both an iPhone and iPad, ensure that both iPad and iPhone are signed-in to iCloud with the same AppleID. To send SMS/MMS messages (green bubbles) from your iPad, you must explicitly enable Text Message Forwarding for your iPad on your iPhone...
On your iPhone:
Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding - set to ON - and explicitly enable your iPad from the list of devices.
Also ensure that Messages in iCloud is enabled on both your iPhone and iPad:
Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > Messages - set to ON
Be aware that iOS/iPadOS 16.5 is current. This update includes essential security and functional updates for both your iPhone and iPad.

Thank you for the reply. I have verified that Text messaging forwarding is on & that messages is enable on both the iPad & iPhone. I compared the iPad in question against mine (which works) the only thing that I can see is different
in Messages to & reply from & Start new conversation from—-Mine (which works) lists my phone #, my id@gmail.com, my id @icloud.com, my id @me.com. The iPad (that doesn’t sync with his iPhone) does not have the id@icloud.com or id@me.com. Is this the problem? If so, how can we edit his to be the same? Thank you.
