Question

I'm in the national guard and I got my w2s and some of the pay is active duty and some is not. Do I click the box saying my wages are active duty or do I not?

You are not able to choose the box that you were on active duty unless you served for 90 days (consecutively) during the tax year. Active service Drills and AT do not count as active duty.  Persons in the Reserve or National Guard are not full-time active duty military personnel, although they can be deployed at any time should the need arise.

So if I went through basic and straight to ait and was gone in total for about 18 weeks I check the box that says my wages are active duty pay?
