Updated October 4, 2026. Quick answer: No. The 2025 Oklahoma packet says a taxpayer may “exclude 100% of retirement benefits from any component of the Armed Forces” on Schedule 511-A, line 4, and prints no dollar cap or age for it.
State retirement-income forms, line by line: Oklahoma Schedule 511-A.
How Oklahoma treats military retired pay
| Item | What the documents say |
|---|---|
| Treatment | Exclusion of 100% of retirement benefits from any component of the Armed Forces of the United States (Schedule 511-A, line 4) |
| Per person | Each individual may exclude 100% of their own retirement benefits |
| Active duty pay | Active duty, Reserve and National Guard pay is a separate exclusion on Schedule 511-C, line 1 |
| Cap, age or rates | The packet prints no cap or age, and points to its Tax Table rather than printing a rate |
A $30,000 example
A retiree with $30,000 of military retirement benefits excludes 100% of it on Schedule 511-A, line 4, so none of that pay is left to tax.
