Is this sentence grammatically correct?:
My husband and I don't live together yet, due to his work and other reasons, so usually we only see each other on weekends.
Thanks in advance,

Since you asked if your sentence was grammatically correct, not how to rephrase your sentence, yes, it's grammatically correct.
Your placement of 'usually' puts extra emphasis on what's normal, and suggests that right now you and your husband are living together and you wish to point out this is not the norm as of yet.
If you simply wish to explain your living situation, I'd suggest moving 'usually' until after the pronoun 'we', de-emphasizing the point of what's usually.
Note that your placement of 'usually' isn't wrong, it just gives a slightly different spin to your sentence.
