Claiming exemption from Maryland withholding for civilian military spouse

Maryland State employees who wish to claim exception for Maryland withholding on the basis of being a civilian spouse of a military service member assigned to Maryland (or one of the border states) must now complete and attach Form MW507M to their MW507.  This form must also be sent to the Compliance Division by the employer with the MW507.

We have amended our "2011 Instruction Booklet for Completing Withholding Forms" to reflect this new requirement.  The booklet and the MW507M form may be printed from the Forms page.

Those who have previously filed for exemption under the Military Spouses Residency Relief Act should be advised to re-file as soon as possible.
