Why am I being asked if I'm a retired government employee?
If you and/or your spouse is a state or local government employee who retired after December 31, 1994, your and/or your spouse's taxable pensions and annuities on your Iowa return may be different than on your federal return. In these cases, see the 1099-R issued by IPERS (Iowa Public Employees Retirement System), and enter the correct taxable amount on the screen that will show up only if you answer "Yes" to you and/or your spouse being a retired government employee.
