Maryland State Tax Return

I used TurboTax to file my Maryland State tax return but it made a mistake.  I entered all of the information correctly.  It told me I owed $1700 to Maryland for my taxes.  However looking at what both my husband and I had contributed to Maryland for our withholdings we should have gotten a $300ish refund.  TurboTax for some reason didn't add my husband's withholding into the state return only my withholding.  What happens now?

Maryland will be able to catch this error and make the correction- they should automatically cancel your payment and send the refund.  Be sure to check your accounts, if the payments were withdrawn you may have to file an amended return to claim the refund (but they should automatically pick up this error).

 

If you want to contact them, you can call 1-800-MD-TAXES (1-800-638-2937) or 410-260-7980, or by emailing taxpayerhelp@marylandtaxes.gov.

Were the spouse's Maryland withholdings reported on a W-2 or in some other way?  Please clarify.
