Welcome

Welcome to Military Finishing and Filing the Return.

This lesson will help you address special filing concerns of members of the U.S. Armed Forces. To do this, you need to determine where and when to file a federal tax return, who qualifies for a deadline extension, and who qualifies for special tax benefits.

If you prepare returns at a military site, request Publication 3, Armed Forces Tax Guide. There are many special provisions that apply to members of the U.S. Armed Forces; this publication is a valuable reference.
