Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@Anonymous 

 

You need to go back to your DFAS W-2 and edit it.

Step thru the main form page, and on one of the pages AFTER the main form, there is a page with a whole long list of checkboxes.  In the middle of that mess there is one you need to "X" indicating that the W-2 is for Active Duty Military service.

 

Why do you need to do that since it was from DFAS?  Shouldn't software auto detect it ?  I imagine there are a lot of civilians who get DFAS W-2 forms too, who are not in military service, so you need to tell the software that particular W-2 was for active duty service..
