State tax filing
Probably not, but it depends. Do you go to NY to work at all? If so, then any time you spend working in NY would be considered NY source income. Also, NY has a Convenience of the Employer Rule. Basically, this rule says if you are working remotely for your convenience then you are considered to be working in NY. If you are working remotely for your employers convenience, then you would not be considered to have income from NY sources.
Ex. if you are working remotely because you don't want to commute, but the company has an office for you on the days you do commute, then this would be NY source income and taxable by NY. In this situation, you would need to file a NY nonresident return and then file a MD resident return claiming a credit on your MD return for taxes paid to NY.
If you have never stepped foot in NY (for work purposes) and your work was 100% remote, and you did not live there during the year, then you would not need to file a NY return or pay taxes to NY. All of your income would only be taxable by MD, not NY.
In summary, if your employer hired you as an MD resident to work from home and NOT in the office, then you would not need to pay taxes on the income you receive working for the NY based company.
