A pension distribution coded as a qualified government or public pension at the screen Where is your distribution from? will trigger a type G pension distribution in the TurboTax Michigan state income tax return.
The information below and on the Michigan Department of Treasury website lists the qualifications for a County Correction Officer. From here, we have no idea whether the pension distribution (which we cannot view) qualifies for this specific Michigan pension benefit subtraction.
Michigan Fire, Police, and Correction Officer Retirees
Who qualifies as a Safety Officer?
