You may be able to subtract certain military retirement pay, including pensions, from your Minnesota taxable income and alternative minimum taxable income.
Do I qualify?
You may qualify if your retirement pay is taxable on your federal return and was for any of these:
- Service in the active component of the military (U.S. Code Title 10, sections 1401 to 1414)
- Service in the reserve component (U.S. Code Title 10, section 12733)
- Survivor benefit plan payments, including payments to a former spouse as part of a court order?(U.S. Code, title 10, sections 1447 to 1455)
A divorcee who receives a portion of their former spouse?s military pension through their divorce settlement is eligible to subtract that income to the extent it is included in FAGI.
You may not claim this subtraction if you claim the Credit for Past Military Service.
What if I did not claim the subtraction on my Minnesota return?
You may amend your Minnesota return using Form M1X, Amended Minnesota Income Tax, and claim the subtraction. Find current- and prior-year forms and instructions on our website. To claim a refund, you must amend your return within 3.5 years from your original return due date.
