Does Oklahoma Tax all of my retirement income?

Civil Service Retirement in Lieu of Social Security..

Each individual may exclude a percentage (see chart below) of their retirement benefits received from the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS), including survivor benefits, paid in lieu of Social Security to the extent such benefits are included in the Federal Adjusted Gross Income. Multiply your taxable CSRS retirement benefits by appropriate percentage below and enter here. The amount remaining will qualify for retirement exclusion on Schedule 511-A, line 5. Enter your Retirement Claim Number from your Form CSA 1099-R in the box on Schedule 511-A, line 3. Enclose a copy of Form CSA 1099-R with your return. To be eligible, the CSA 1099-R must be in your name.

The percentages are as follows:

• 2007 - 20%
• 2008 - 40%
• 2009 - 60%
• 2010 - 80%
• 2011 and thereafter - 100%

Note: Retirement benefits paid under the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) do not qualify for this exclusion. However retirement benefits that contain both a FERS component and a CSRS component, the CSRS component will qualify for the exclusion.
