PA Resident Paying MD Taxes

[Rjleese22]

Hello, so i am a PA resident who previously worked in MD. The first year i worked in MD i filed MD taxes by accident cause i was young and didnt know any better and Turbotax said i should, so i did. Later i found out i am not supposed to pay md taxes as a pa resident even if i work in the state. The next year i filed exempt and thought i was all good. Not MD has sent me a letter stating i owe a backlog of taxes from 2024 with extra charges. The instant message funtion on here didnt give me a solid answer on what to do or how to file to make sure i am exempt from paying these taxes. If anyone has a helpful suggestion i would greatly appreciate it.

if there is a phone number on the notice, call. if not, write them at the address indicated, send by a method where there's tracking so you know it arrives. then tell them you are a full-year PA resident and that by MD law exempt from taxation on wages earned in MD. Ask them what you need to do to verify your residency in PA to resolve this matter. you may also mention you misfiled that prior year because you were a full-time PA resident at the time. Depending on the year you may be able (and want to) to get back those MD taxes but then would have to file an amended PA return to eliminate any credit you claimed for MD taxes. don't know which way you would come out ahead in that prior year.
