If you receive a Survivor Benefit Plan, Reserve Component Survivor Benefit Plan or Retired Serviceman’s Family Protection Plan annuity because of the death of a service member or veteran, you can subtract it from your Colorado taxable income. The cap is $20,000 if you are under 65 and $24,000 if you are 65 or older.
There is nothing to apply for. Claim the subtraction on Schedule DR 0104AD when you file your Colorado return.
