The forms must first be revised by the State of Maryland. Once that is done, TurboTax will then update the Maryland state return in the program. Since the forms have not been released from the State of Maryland, the instructions to complete this in TurboTax are not known at the time.

 

Also, please keep in mind that the tax free unemployment waiver only appears to apply to single filers who reported under $75,000 or joint filers who reported under $150,000. 

 

For more information, please see the Relief Act Tax Alert.

Thank you! So I will keep waiting.  Yes, my husband and I file jointly, combined we made less than $100k.  So it will still apply for us.  I will keep waiting for the updated forms then. Thank you for the information.
