Deductions & credits

According to the Maryland tax website, that is not allowed.

"Also please keep in mind that the Federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act has increased the Standard Federal Deduction beginning with the 2018 tax year, providing an attractive alternative to itemized deductions. Unfortunately once a Maryland taxpayer claims a standard deduction on their Federal return, they must also claim a standard deduction on their Maryland return."
