Tax help for military filers

Since you are claiming Missouri as your state of resident your military income is taxable for that state. You need to file a resident tax return for Missouri and add form MO-NRI if you did not:

  • Maintain permanent living quarters in Missouri
  • Maintained permanent Living Quarters elsewhere
  • Did spend more than 30 days in Missouri during the year

If you meet these qualifications your active military pay is not taxed in Missouri, but you do still need to file a tax return with Missouri.

If you earned other non-military income that you earned in the state where you are currently living you would need to file a non-resident return for that income.
