West Virginia Income Tax Exclusion for Combat and Hazardous Duty Pay

West Virginia Tax Division
Full exclusion from West Virginia taxable income

Combat pay and hazardous duty pay that federal law leaves out of your taxable income is also left out of your West Virginia taxable income.

Check eligibility

How to apply

There is nothing to apply for. West Virginia starts from your federal adjusted gross income, so pay already excluded federally is not taxed by the state.

What you'll need

Your Leave and Earnings Statements or orders showing the combat zone or hazardous duty service dates.

Eligibility

  • You are a West Virginia resident filing a West Virginia income tax return
  • You received combat pay or hazardous duty pay that is excluded from your federal taxable income
