Yes, military retirement is taxable in Georgia, just like it is on the Federal return.  They do not give any special deductions or subtractions on the income.  Please see this link (military.com) which can take you to the Georgia website for further information:  http://www.military.com/money/personal-finance/taxes/state-tax-information.html#GA

Does turbotax offer a discount for retired military?

Not at this time. The Military Discount means that TurboTax Online is free for enlisted active duty military and reserve personnel.

Thank you for your service!

I'm retired military and earned $11,274 in 2019 from my pension.  According to Turbo Tax there is an exemption.  There is a section labeled "Retirement Income Exempt by Federal Law or Treaty".  Is that applicable to me?

No, Retirement Income Exempt by Federal Law or Treaty applies to pensions from foreign countries or foreign social security.
