No. When you work remotely, the income is sourced to where the work is performed. So if you work from home in FL, this income will be FL-source income (regardless of the fact that the company is located in MD). Therefore you will not have an MD nonresident state income tax filing related to this earned income.

Are you sure?

<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://taxes.marylandtaxes.gov/Individual_Taxes/Individual_Tax_Types/Income_Tax/Filing_Information/D...>

Says here:

If you are a nonresident of Maryland, you are required to file Form 505 (Maryland Nonresident Income Tax Return) and Form 505NR (Maryland Nonresident Income Tax Calculation) if you have income derived from:

- Tangible property, real or personal, permanently located in Maryland;
- A business, trade, profession or occupation carried on in Maryland; or,
- Gambling winnings derived from Maryland sources.

Yeah. there can some confusion about that.
about this part:

*****A business, trade, profession or occupation "carried on in Maryland"

(My quotes)......work actually done by the worker's physical presence in MD. and this person said they worked remotely from FL

Are you saying if I were to be a computer programmer working from home in florida employed by a company in MD, there are no MD state taxes to pay or to report to the state of MD?

That is correct.....but, of course, exceptions apply if you physically go to MD occasionally to work at the MD site itself.

Where did you find your defintion of "income derived from.... business, trade or occupation carried on in Maryland" to mean "physical presence"?    This would be largely helpful.
