Excludable income police injured on duty

[dreyer1]

where can I enter excludable income for a duty injury for a police officer, seems we can no longer enter it as an adjustment to income as in 2023

What type of tax document was issued to them?

not only what document but what state - most nyc lodi is already reflected in box 1 wages and a code in box 14 has the lodi amount

there are county/village police in NY that don't do it on the w-2 for you and you need them to get you the number of days out as well as the day rate of pay - calculate it and keep a copy of whatever they supply showing the days and back it out of other income with a line of duty non taxable description

In CA Ive never seen a tax documents when its nontaxable for injured on the job. 

Disability pension will have a reduced amount in Box 2 but thats the closest Ive seen.

You see a lot of things in New York that you won't see anywhere else.  Even in California.  You will see Lodi, but that's a town between Stockton and Sacramento, known for a song by a guy who was stuck there. 

I think the idea here is that it is the equivalent of worker compensation, but they just continue the paychecks and do a book entry to explain the difference.

We figured we put it as a negative amount on schedule 1 and send the letter pdf with the 1040
