Exclusions for Military pay in Illinois
Thanks. I checked that site as well and it indicated as a drilling reservist it should qualify to be removed from my state AGI. I have not had a problem in past years, not sure what the issue is on this today. Could be a software issue with the program.
In the Illinois interview you will arrive at a page entitled "Here's the income Illinois handles differently." One of the categories is "Military". There you would exclude your Reservist pay.
