Military Discount - do I qualify?

geoint — Mon, 28 Dec 2020 19:08:35 GMT

I enlisted in the National Guard at the very end of November of this year. My unit didn't drill in December so I have yet to 'work a day' for the Guard in 2020, and won't be inprocessing to my unit and drilling until our January drill. As such, I don't anticipate a W2 for 2020. Without a W2, am I disqualified from the Military Discount?

If you do not have a military W-2 for tax year 2020 then you are not eligible for the Military discount on the 2020 TurboTax program.

Wait until the IRS free file options open up sometime mid-month and Link in through the irs-free file page to get your federal and state returns done for free. If your AGI is 72,000 or less than there's a free file option for you.
