Get your taxes done using TurboTax

How about married couple, neither one is a Maryland resident, but one has W2 income from Maryland and the other has W2 from their home state? 

 

In this case, it seems to make sense if the couple file married-joint on their federal return, and then the one with Maryland income files married-separate on the Maryland return as a nonresident while the other spouse with no Maryland income should not have to file a Maryland return at all.

 

Non of the scenarios covers this case specifically under "Determine Your Filing Status" on https://www.marylandtaxes.gov/individual/income/filing/index.php

 

Hope someone who has done this before can confirm if the understanding above is correct.

 

Thanks!
