In order to complete a Maryland amendment you need to have a copy of your originally filed returned that taxes the unemployment benefits. 

 

If you have a copy printed or downloaded that you can access already, you can follow these steps.

  1. Sign in to TurboTax
  2. Select "Add a state"
  3. The updates should already be in TurboTax that now exclude the unemployment.

  5. Click "Yes" you want to amend
