    (There are no military discounts on “Live” versions, the CD/download or on add-on features)

     

    In the My Info section of the program indicate that you are active military.  You must enter a Military W-2 in the Wages & Income section and after completing the W-2 on the screen labeled Let's check for uncommon situations you will need to check the box Active military duty

     

    When you are at the end of preparing your return you should not be charged,

    If there is a link on the USAA website you have to use that to access TurboTax.

     

    Otherwise, the TurboTax online editions are only free to use if you are active duty or reserves and enlisted ranks  only.

    Go to this TurboTax website for active military - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/online/military-edition.jsp
