Retirement tax questions

Essentially Massachusetts doesn't tax government pensions.  From any federal or state agency.  It also doesn't tax social security.  If your pension is from a government entity there will be a box to check when you're entering your Massachusetts tax return that will remove it from taxable income for the state.
