Question

If TurbTax is free for military members, why am I charged yearly when I file at the end?

Been filing as active duty since 2022, but I always see the charge at the end when it's time to submit.

    In the My Info section of the program you need to indicate that you are active military.  You must enter a Military W-2 in the Wages & Income section and after completing the W-2 on the screen labeled Let's check for uncommon situations you will need to check the box Active military duty

     

    When you complete the tax return using the above information you will not be charged for either the federal or state tax returns
