Retirement tax questions

Good Question.

 

The Servicemembers' Civil Relief Act of 2003 applies to active duty USPHS officers.

 

Also, your active duty pay is likely taxed based on your state of legal residence, which may not be where you are geographically serving similar to Armed Forces. E.g., serving in Maryland but taxed under South Dakota if SD is your state of legal residence. 

 

I hope TurboTax is able to weigh in on this. Seems like something they missed.
