So, if i choose the standard deduction vs. itemization, the Federal refund is higher than if I itemized. BUT, if I do do itemized the State refund is much larger. This is for Maryland. So, even though it recommends standard deduction (FED) if I choose Itemization, my total refund increases dramatically. Does this make sense? Is this even possible? In addition to W2 Income, we have self-employed and use of home deductions.
Thanks
