How do I include my combat pay when I file

Combat pay is not taxable  ....   it is already included on the W-2 in box 12 code Q and will be considered for things like the EIC automatically  so there is nothing else you need to do in the program . 

How can I double check that code Q combat pay was deducted from their wages? My CX wants verification.

@scook4 Look at the amount in box 3 of the W-2.  If box 1 is less than box 3 by the amount of the combat pay earned then it was not taxed.

Thank you DoninGA, I thought the same thing but the figures did not match so I figured something else was added back in box 3. Thanks so much for your response.

Also look for other things in box 12 that might be reducing box 1 even further.

Some of you TSP contributions (if any) might reduce it further also.
