I am an Active Duty Military, and NY is my home of record. Working on my return now and encountered something new. I satisfy the NY state tax code for full non-resident tax exemption, and as I have done before, working on filing the IT-203 (Nonresident) return. But this year, when I reach the "Changes to Federal Income" part, under the "Wage and retirement adjustments (Military pay, NYC benefits withholding, pension exclusion, Health care worker bonus)," there is no "Military Pay" button, so I can't properly enter my tax exemption, and a s a result can't get the full refund. Please help - how do I solve this?

Well, the forms are "supposed" to be ready now for e-filing

.....but I note that the Printed NY forms for the IT-203 are not expected to be ready until on/after 30 Jan. Maybe it will be fixed with the final update the night before the 3th.

 

Or, call Customer Support to get a bug ticket logged:

Found the solution - it was the website issue. I had to delete everything and restart the filing process. Everything was there, and military pay option was available. Posting for everyone who may have the same issue.
