At Rhonda’s Stop Bullying, we are proud to support veterans and disabled heroes by providing personalized tax services that simplify the filing process and maximize financial benefits. We understand the unique tax challenges faced by those who have served our country, and our mission is to ensure every veteran and disabled hero receives the full range of benefits and exemptions they deserve.

From navigating disability benefit exemptions to claiming tax credits, we are here to guide you every step of the way. Our team of experts is committed to making tax preparation stress-free so you can focus on what truly matters—your well-being and financial security.

​

1. Disability Benefits and Tax Exemptions

Veterans receiving VA disability benefits are entitled to tax exemptions on this income. These benefits are not taxable at the federal level, and many states also exclude them from income taxes. We’ll help you:

• Confirm your eligibility for tax exemptions.

• File correctly to reflect these exemptions, reducing or eliminating your tax liability.

​​

2. Military Pension and Retirement Income​

Military retirement pay may be partially or fully taxable depending on federal and state regulations. However, many states offer specific tax exemptions for veterans. Our services include:

• Reviewing your eligibility for state-level retirement income exemptions.

• Assisting with deductions that apply to military pensions and other sources of retirement income.

​​

3. Property Tax Relief for Disabled Veterans

States across the country provide property tax relief programs for disabled veterans, which can include partial or full exemptions based on the degree of disability. We’ll assist you in:

• Identifying the programs available in your state.

• Filing for exemptions or reductions to lower your housing costs.

​​

4. Combat-Related Special Compensation (CRSC)

CRSC is a tax-exempt payment for eligible disabled veterans who receive military retirement pay and have combat-related disabilities. Many veterans are unaware of the tax advantages of CRSC. Our team will ensure:

• This income is correctly excluded from taxable income.

• You receive the maximum benefits available without tax penalties.

​

5. Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP) Tax Support

The Survivor Benefit Plan provides financial security for families of deceased veterans, but it can bring unique tax implications. We help you:

• File correctly to account for SBP income.

• Understand how SBP payments interact with other income and tax credits.

​​

6. Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) for Disabled Veterans

Veterans with disabilities who have earned income may qualify for the EITC, a refundable credit that can increase your refund significantly. Our team will:

• Determine your eligibility for the EITC.

• File your return to include this valuable credit.

​​

7. Deductions for Medical Expenses

Veterans with service-related disabilities often incur medical expenses that can be deducted on their tax returns. This includes:

• Unreimbursed medical equipment costs (e.g., wheelchairs, prosthetics).

• In-home care and nursing services.

• Travel expenses for medical appointments.

​​

8. Job Transition and Employment Deductions

Transitioning from military service to civilian life often comes with unique tax challenges. We’ll help you take advantage of deductions for:

• Job Search Costs: Resumes, travel, and placement services.

• Relocation Expenses: If you’ve moved to accept a civilian job, certain expenses may be deductible.
