Yes, if you were on active duty orders these wages would be considered active military pay.

If you are a military member and a Minnesota resident, you may subtract federally taxable active-duty military pay when determining your Minnesota tax.

You may claim this subtraction if any of the following apply:

  • You serve in the Minnesota National Guard and Reserves, and you receive federally taxable active-duty pay for services or compensation for training and meetings under U.S. Code, titles 10 and 32. Examples include:
    • Active Duty Special Work (ADSW) or Active Duty Operational Support (ADOS)
    • Natural disaster emergency response, missing persons searches, and airport security duty
    • Re-enlistment bonuses
    • National Guard and Reserves duties, annual training, and drill weekends, including training and meetings inside or outside of Minnesota
    • Compensation for serving while assigned to Active Guard Reserves (AGR) under U.S. Code, title 32

Please see MN Military Pay Subtraction for detailed information.
