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.
