Is the subtraction for individual retirement account distributions a one-time adjustment for one year only or can you use for several years?

    There is a retirement income exclusion in Georgia.  For anyone age 62 to 64, the exclusion is $35,000 per person. For age 65 or older, the exclusion is $65,000 per person. That applies to all income from retirement accounts and pensions.  You can use it for as long as you have retirement income.

    I understand that deduction   Georgia also has a deduction for retirement income .  Under subtractions that is item 5 which states - individual retirement account, keogh, sep and sub-s plan withdrawals where tax has been paid to georiga because of the difference between georgia and federal law for tax years 1982 - 1986.  I'm trying to understand if this is a one time (one year) adjustment or an ongoing adjustment.
