Tax help for military filers

Correct.  You do not owe PA tax on your military income.  You have to make the income non-taxable in PA.  To do this:

 

  • On the Pennsylvania state return, look for the screen entitled Compensation Summary
  • Click Edit on the Military W2.
  • You'll see a screen entitled: Verify this Income.  Click on the Box Entire Amount...not Taxable in PA
  • Select Continue.

The income will be subtracted from Pennsylvania taxable income.
