Daniel,
Maryland sent me a notice that they want my refund back. I work remotely as a telecommuter for Maryland University. I live in California and work 100% online, have never been or plan to go to MD
I am in the midst of writing my letter to MD stating why I don't owe taxes in MD. The only evidence I can find to support your statement "No, unless you were physically present in Maryland when you worked there. Maryland does not tax telecommuters who are working remotely from outside of Maryland," is the Maryland Non-resident tax return booklet https://forms.marylandtaxes.gov/current_forms/nonresident_booklet.pdf see page 1, item #3. "A nonresident individual is subject to tax on that portion of the federal adjusted gross income that is derived from tangible property, real or personal, permanently located in Maryland (whether received directly or from a fiduciary) and on income from a business, trade, profession or occupation carried on in Maryland and on all gambling winnings derived from Maryland sources."
Since my occupation is not carried on in Maryland, it is carried on in California, I should not need to pay Maryland taxes.
Is there any other support, laws, proof I can use to help?
Thanks so much!!
