I keep getting this notification, and I don't know why. I filled out the required information from my W-2 from DFAS. I answered YES to if I am a member of the military.

Please ensure that you checked the active-duty military box for the W-2 on the "Do any of these uncommon situations apply to this W-2?" screen right after you enter your W-2.

Furthermore, when you get to your state return double-check that your military pay is entered correctly on the "Military Pay Exclusion" screen for Illinois.
