Question
What are Virginia Schedule ADJ Subtractions?

Answer

To the extent included in federal adjusted gross income, the following subtractions are allowed on the Virginia return. No amount previously excluded from FAGI can be claimed as a subtraction in computing Virginia taxable income. The same income may not be included in more than one subtraction.

Special instructions for members of the military Virginia law provides 3 subtractions for military servicemembers.

•military pay and allowances earned while serving in a combat zone or qualified hazardous duty area (Va. Code § 58.1-322 C 21);

•military basic pay for personnel on extended active duty for periods in excess of 90 consecutive days (Va. Code § 58.1-322 C 23); and

•wages or salaries received for active and inactive service in the National Guard of the Commonwealth (Va. Code § 58.1-322 C 11).

Servicemembers may be eligible for more than one subtraction, but the same income may not be included in more than one subtraction. For example, a servicemember may not deduct the same income for both the military basic pay subtraction and the National Guard subtraction.
