Tax help for military filers

@zjp707 

 

Just because you took a picture of that W-2 does not mean TTX recognizes it as being Military...

Why?  Civilians also work for DFAS.

 

So

1)  Go Back to the W-2 area and EDIT that w-2.

2)  After first checking EVERY box to make sure the numbers went in right (pictures are known to create huge errors.)

THEN

3)  On the page after the main W-2 form, the is a page with a whole long list of checkboxes.

YOU MUST check the checkbox in the middle that indicates the W-2 is for military active duty.

 

Only then will TTX recognize you're eligible for the free software & filing available to enlisted personnel.
