topic Yes in Tax help for military filers

If all of my 2018 income came from summer military training, but I returned to school afterwards and am not yet commissioned - what was my military status in December?

I successfully completed training but I do not commission until May of 2019 - so I am unsure which option to select for "military status as of December 31, 2018".

Are you in the NG? Reserves?

Marine Corps with a contract for active duty. The training was 10 week OCS.

So you're obligated for active duty in May?
