Tax help for military filers

 

And if you are an enlisted member, you must mark a checkbox, on one of the pages after the main W-2 form entries, that indicates that the W-2 was for military service.  Only then will the tax return become eligible for free filing.

 

If you missed that checkbox, go back and edit that DFAS W-2.
