My husband receives a military pension after serving 22 years in the Army. Where does this go on the form?

Where do you put a military pension on the tax return?

Did you receive a form 1099-R reporting the pension? If not, you should have; please contact the pension administrator.

If you did receive the 1099-R, then Search for 1099-r (yes, lower case), jump to it, and enter the data from the form.

Be sure to answer the questions that follow that may relate to the source of the pension. This can be important to state returns.
