Yes. Per GA Department of Revenue: A retirement exclusion is allowed provided the taxpayer is 62 years of age or older, or the taxpayer is totally and permanently disabled. Retirement income includes items such as: interest, dividends, net rentals, capital gains, royalties, pensions, annuities, and the first $4000.00 of earned income.

My question is under this Special Retirement Provision, am I exempted from Georgia state taxes immediately, and not at 62 years of age? Please email me the correct answer to [email address removed]

Thank you.

@Enterprise1557 There is no provision in the Georgia tax code for a retirement income exclusion from anyone under the age of 62 except for military pensions if the taxpayer is under age 62.
