One of the first screens you will encounter in the Minnesota interview is entitled "Tell Us About Any Income Adjustments".

The second line on this form says, "Received compensation from a Military Pension or other Military Retirement Pay.".

Check this box.

This will open two lines that say

Enter the amount of your Military Pension or Retirement Pay

received in [the current tax year]


Enter the amount of your military pension in the box on the second line.

This will remove your military pension from your Minnesota taxable income.
