Question

I entered my DFAS military W-2 and Turbo Tax is requiring payment still, but should not be. Is this this a software error?

Per TurboTax Free Miilitary FAQ:
"To get started, enter your W-2 and verify your military rank when prompted within the TurboTax Online Product (Free Edition, Deluxe, Premium). Your discount will be applied when you are ready to file."

Make sure that you indicated you were active Military when completing your personal information in the My Info section of the program.

 

Additionally, right after completing the military W-2 there is a screen labeled Let's check for uncommon situations

Check the box Active military duty
