Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@johnnytucats We are not able to accurately answer your question without knowing what was blacked out.
It appears you received more than $10,200 in unemployment and the difference was included on your federal income tax return because it was not exempt.
Maryland's unemployment rules are different from federal. Any amount of unemployment compensation in excess of $10,200 that is included at the federal level is eligible for the subtraction at the Maryland level, subject to Maryland’s income caps for the subtraction.
Taxpayers who qualify for the federal exclusion, but do not qualify for the Maryland subtraction, need not add back the amount excluded from FAGI; the exclusion flows to the Maryland return.
Qualifying unemployment includes unemployment compensation from Maryland or from a jurisdiction with which the State has a reciprocal taxation agreement may be subtracted. Maryland has reciprocal agreements with Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia.
