Tax help for military filers

If you are a Georgia state resident then up to $65,000 of retirement income is excluded from state taxation if you are age 65 or older.  Or if you are under age 62 and disabled then the retirement income exclusion is $35,000.  Additionally, the first $4,000 of earned income is excluded from taxation.

 

If you are under age 62, in the Georgia state program section for Retirement, on Retirement Income Exclusion click on the start button.  The program will ask you if you have a permanent disability that prevented you from working in 2019.  If this your situation then answer Yes.
