State tax filing

The reason your taxes in Maryland are so high is because you had no state tax withholding for Maryland during the year. Going forward, please tell your employer to withhold Maryland state income taxes. 

 

Per the District of Columbia, you do not need to file a DC return if:

  • You were not required to file a 2021 federal income tax return
  • You were not considered a resident of DC during 2021

Therefore, if you did not live in DC at all during 2021, you do not need to file a return.

 

To get a full refund of taxes paid, you must file a Nonresident Request for Refund (D-40B).  You can do this in TurboTax by adding a state return for DC and following the on-screen instructions.
