Maryland tax was correctly withheld from your pay because you were hired on the assumption that you would be a Maryland-based employee, but are temporarily working remotely due to the pandemic.
The Comptroller of Maryland issued guidance that Maryland withholding requirements are not affected by the shift from working in an office to teleworking for Maryland employees.
Generally, Maryland imposes income tax, and therefore a withholding requirement on employers, for employees living in Maryland and on non-residents receiving Maryland-sourced income. Income is deemed Maryland-sourced income when the income is compensation for services performed in
Maryland.
