Retirement tax questions

When entering a 1099-R from DFAS in your Federal return, choose 'Retired or retainer pay of the uniformed services of the U.S'. at the question 'Where is this distribution from?'

 

Depending on your state, all or part of your military retirement pay may be excluded from tax (or sometimes a credit is given instead).  You will be asked about this in your State interview in TurboTax. 

 

If you can clarify with more info about your state, we'll try to help more specifically.
