Yes, if you were deployed to Qatar as a member of the U.S. military, you will get a tax-break.
If you serve in a combat zone as an enlisted service member or as a warrant officer for any part of a month, all your income for that month is exempt from federal taxes. For officers, the monthly exclusion is capped at the highest rate of enlisted pay, plus any hostile fire or imminent danger pay received.
Your DFAS Form W-2 will include the tax information necessary to get all deployment-related tax breaks.
