    You are generally considered a member of the Armed Forces from the date you enlisted - December 16. Therefore, you should check "member of Armed Forces" on your tax forms.

     

    For more detailed information, you can refer to the IRS guidelines in Publication 3, Armed Forces' Tax Guide and the IRS Military page.
