🔍 Ohio State Refund Not Calculating the Military Exemption (SureFire 2017)
Ohio has a lot of rules on military pay, and SureFire 2017 does not have the ability to determine if the military pay qualifies or does not.
⚠️ Before You Begin
For an Ohio 1040 return, you will need to review the guidance for where the military exemption should be reported.
📊 Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Check the F1 Help Instructions
Use this when you need to find the correct place to report the military exemption.
In the F1 Help, read the instructions on Deductions for OH Sch A, Line 24.
Step 2: Report the Military Exemption at Tax Preparer Discretion
Use this when the software cannot determine qualification automatically.
The military exemption would need to be reported on that line at the tax preparer's discretion.
❌ Important Note
Because the software does not have the ability to determine whether military pay qualifies, the exemption must be handled based on the instructions and the tax preparer's discretion.
