How do I make turbotax online deduct my military income from the AGI for Ohio return when I was not stationed in Ohio?

[Backless3520]

I'm a Ohio resident that is Active Duty military but am not stationed in Ohio. Per the tax.ohio.gov I should be able to deduct my income because it was earned while not stationed in Ohio. I have gone through he my info section multiple times verifying I haven't messed anything about saying I'm military. I can not figure out how to make turbotax give me the option to select that what am I missing?

Additional information if it helps filing jointly and spouse is a resident of another state.

I figured it out! After uploading your W-2 you must select the check box that says "Active military duty." If that box is not checked the prompt will not come up when doing the state taxes.

I hope this helps anyone else out. Took a while for me to find that.

^ But how does that deduct the nontaxable income from the reported income which was taxed but included BAH and BAS?

It removes all the income. If you are stationed outside OH, there is no taxable income for military pay. The adjustments form is accessed by going through Ohio to Here's the Income that Ohio handles differently. Be sure you have military marked in the  personal information screen and where stationed outside of OH to qualify for the deduction.

Thank you for your service.
