I have a military W-2 (DFAS) and don't get the military discount. What do I do?

Yes, enlisted active duty military and reservists military service members (E-1 through E-9) with a W2 from DFAS get to use TurboTax Online products for free (Some restrictions apply; see details here TurboTax military).  TurboTax Live will not qualify.

You will indicate in two places that you are military:

• The first is in the "My Info" section after you enter your name and occupation. You can click on "My Info" on the left and click on "Edit" next to your name. Scroll down to "I am a member or former member of the U.S. Armed Forces (active, reserve or National Guard)." Turbo Tax will ask follow-up questions.
• The second is on the "Do any of these uncommon situations apply to this W-2?" screen after you enter your W-2, you can check the active-duty military box for the W-2.

Please see Military Personnel Tax Tips for additional information.
