Bill today talked about the Georgia Retirement Tax Exclusion: Here are the highlights.

The Georgia Retirement Tax Exclusion: Up to $35,000 of exclusion exempt from tax plus Social Security. Available to all seniors 62 and over. He said that when he and Merry have a senior as a client, they look back to amend the past three years of returns and get them more money back. The Georgia Retirement Tax Exclusion is available to anyone 62 or over or anyone classified as disability by Social Security. It's on Georgia tax form 500.

Bill had a lady whose husband passed and she said we weren't retired and there was $1,700 of refunds waiting for her. Make sure you ask for it.

I received an executrix fee from my father's estate. I would like to know how and where to report it on my tax return.

Brenda: Line 21 (I think) on your federal tax return. There is a space next to it where you would type in "executrix fee" so the IRS would know what it is for. Thanks for listening to the show.
