Retirement tax questions

@Retiree15 - there is someething in NC called "Bailey" and it exempts Federal, State and Local pensions from NC state income tax as long as your pension was vested by August 12,1989, which for most means you must have started your job prior to August 12, 1984 (since most pensions have a 5 year vesting requirement). 

 

So, in most likelihood, your pension would be TAXABLE in NC.
