georgia retirement exclusion age difference
I was reviewing some posts on Georgia retirement exclusion and one answer contains conflicting info in this post " I have underlined the conflicting info.
This is the title of the earlier post I refer to? : What is considered retirement income in order to get deduction for state of GA return but was included in federal return?
One part of the answer provided says : "Georgia does not tax Social Security retirement benefits and provides a deduction of $65,000 per person on all types of retirement income for anyone 64 or older."
a couple of paragraphs later it says "As of 2015, you can deduct up to $35,000 of retirement income if you are between the ages of 62 and 64 or permanently disabled. At age of 65, you can deduct up to $65,000. "
Which age does the 65 k exclusion hit? 64 or 65 or older?
2nd question what date in the year does one have to be the age to qualify.. i.e if I turn 64 in December 2019, will that qualify me for the exclusion when I prepare my 2019 states?
Thanks in advance!
