It depends on the amount of your military pay. The State of Virginia states "Resident service members serving on active duty for 90 or more days who earn less than $30,000 (base pay) can deduct up to $15,000 from their Virginia Income tax. For every $1 of income over $15,000, the maximum subtraction is reduced by $1".
If over $30,000, you are not eligible for the active duty military subtraction. The key caveat is that you do need to earn less than $30,000. If you entered this manually, you may receive a nice letter from the State of Virginia.
