That is diabolical that Maryland changed their tax law to phase out the itemized deduction. We were forced to 'couple' our return to the Federal Return that resulted in having to pay more MD state taxes. Now that we get some Federal relief because of the increase in the SALT limit from 10,000 to 40,000, Maryland is penalizing us again. I need TurboTax to allow me to select between Standard or Itemized and generate a screen that says that I cannot Itemize even though I itemized on my Federal Return because I exceeded a threshold for my records.
