1. The Maryland Relief Payment is considered income for federal tax purposes.
2. It is entered as 'Other Income' on the federal return. In 'Wages and Income' scroll down to 'Less Common Income' and 'Miscellaneous Income.' Enter the description 'Maryland Relief Act' and the amount that you received.
3. In your Maryland return, under 'Here's the Income that Maryland Handles Differently' scroll down to 'Miscellaneous' and look for 'Coronavirus Relief Payment Subtraction' and put in the amount you received and that it was received from the state of Maryland.
That'll do it.
