WASHINGTON - Soldiers in combat, too busy or too far from home to file their taxes, get special exceptions at tax time. The assistance includes flexible filing deadlines, tax-free combat pay and delayed audits. Soldiers can qualify if they served in designated combat zones, which currently include regions in the Arabian Peninsula, Afghanistan and Kosovo. A combat zone includes the airspace over a designated region, and those considered in the combat zone include personnel who serve in direct support of combat operations and receive hostile fire or imminent danger pay.

Jessen-Petersen believes there is a good chance status talks can begin in the second half of this year.
"I am not saying that Mr. Covic or Belgrade doesn't have a right to be critical or worried. There are reasons," Jessen-Petersen said. "But what I do object to is you go through a litany of issues that have been raised so many times and you ignore the facts on the ground and I used security as one example. How can you talk about insecurity, lots of incidents, when the facts are that there hasn't been one single [ethnic incident] since June?"
