Filing Notice Recipients Who Lived in Maryland

If you lived in Maryland during the year indicated on your notice and you believe you have filed a Maryland income tax return, send us a copy of the return and all accompanying information such as W-2's and cancelled checks.

If you were in the military and were a resident of another state, please send us a copy of your military W-2 or your leave and earnings statement. Remember, if you or your civilian spouse earned non-military income in Maryland, a tax return must be filed.

If you had income which is exempt from Maryland taxation (such as Railroad Retirement or Social Security income), which brings your income below the minimum requirement, please send us a copy of the Railroad Retirement and/or Social Security statement.

If you lived in Maryland for only a part of the year, you must file a return as either a part-year resident or nonresident, depending on your situation. Determine your residency status to find out which form you need to file.

If you have questions or your situation doesn't fit into any of the examples listed above, call the phone number printed on your notice without delay. Please don't assume the problem will go away, even if you believe the notice is incorrect.
