Filling out my Georgia return, there is a line for Survivor Pay Deduction. I receive DIC from the VA. It is non taxable and has never appeared on my taxes before. Is this what the Survivor Pay Deduction is asking for? DIC is not a one time payment. It is not retirement income. There are no 1099s involved. The death happened years ago. I am over 65. Claiming DIC as survivor pay makes a significant impact to my Georgia tax [in my favor]. I tried online search and am finding nothing about GA and DIC on GA tax returns. I am finding nothing on TurboTax that fully explains this deduction. I don't see a form on TurboTax that would show where this deduction is on Georgia forms.
Specifically, what is Survivor Pay Deduction?
