Is my military retirment pay taxable in CT

[raymond-carey]

According to newspapers in CT, it states that in 2016 military retirement pay was considered not taxable. Every time I add it to turbo tax my refund now becomes a payment to the state.

Partially.  This, from www.cga.ct.gov:

Connecticut's income tax excludes (1) 75% or 100% of federally taxable Social Security income, depending on the taxpayer' s federal adjusted gross income (AGI); (2) 100% of railroad retirement benefits; and (3) 50% of federally taxable military retirement benefits. Connecticut has no exemptions for other types of pension income.

Turbo Tax will figure out which portion will be taxed.
