Disability retirement pay you receive as a pension, annuity or similar allowance for an injury or illness that resulted from active service is not included in taxable income. This also covers VA disability compensation and pension payments made to you or your family, grants for a home designed for wheelchair living, grants for a vehicle if you lost your sight or the use of a limb, and dependent care assistance benefits.
There is nothing to apply for. Leave these payments out of the income you report on your West Virginia return.
