@fmnjhome Alabama does not tax your pension income if it comes from a defined benefit retirement plan. A defined benefit retirement plan is one with a fixed and pre-determined benefit amount. Alabama also exempts military retirement pay.

a civil employee is one whom works for the government. So if you worked in public education yes, you are a civil employee.

I hope this helped.
