Deductions & credits

Yes. Since you itemized on your federal tax return, you have the option of either itemizing or taking the standard deduction on your Maine state tax return. Please refer to page 4 of the Maine form instructions under the heading, "line 17 deduction" for additional information. http://www.maine.gov/revenue/forms/1040/2016/16_1040me_book_download.pdf
