Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Her mock return will need to be Married- Separate. Rhode Island does not have itemized deductions, so you can save time and not enter all that info if you had it on your federal. They will do a check, but it is not an uncommon situations so they do know what to look for- and for most things on the federal, single and married/separate have the same amounts used for thresholds and limits.
MARYLAND In the Maryland section, you will file a RESIDENT return. TurboTax should ask you to allocate your wife's income - See the screen below and post here if you do NOT see it and we can help guide/troubleshoot.
NORTH DAKOTA: For North Dakota, you will file a NONRESIDENT ND-1 (TurboTax will default you to this). The ND allocation entry shows the total from the federal return and you indicate your wife's amount from the total. (see below). For North Dakota, you will also have to add the credit for the taxes to other states, TurboTax will have the Maryland amount but you will have to have a copy of the Rhode Island return and input the information.
