I reenlisted in the army for a $20,000 signing bonus but I still haven't received it, what should I put down

[bestgen3939]

asking about the option it shows about receiving a armed forces bonus and if so how much was taxed, well I don't know because I still haven't received it yet

You would not be taxed on that signing bonus until you actually receive it. So you will most likely report it on your 2019 tax return, when you do it in 2020.
