Members of the military and veterans may qualify for free tax filing through MilTax software, provided through the Department of Defense and Military OneSource. Access the tax preparation software through your Military OneSource account. You can file a federal return and up to three state returns for free.

Maryland Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)

When having your return prepared, ask about the Maryland Earned Income Tax Credit.

If you're using tax software to prepare taxes, make sure the platform verifies eligibility. Some platforms don't do this automatically.

What is it?

You earned it! Eligible taxpayers who work and have low to moderate income may qualify for up to $4,000 to reduce their taxes or increase their refund. The tax credit depends on income and family size.

Who qualifies?

Many people miss out on it because they didn't know to ask about it. While everyone who qualifies for the federal EITC also qualifies for the state credit, there's a group of people who qualify for the state credit but may not qualify federally. That includes individuals with an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) and childless adults aged 18-24.

Seasonal gig workers, young adults, first-time workers, part-time employees, and caregivers may qualify for the Maryland EITC.

The Comptroller has a screening tool to help determine if you qualify for the credit.

Other tax credits

There are also other Maryland tax credits to ask your preparer about, including the Maryland Child Tax Credit (CTC), Child and Dependent Care Credit, and Senior Tax Credit.

Maryland-ori

You must complete your federal return before you file your Maryland tax return.

Marylanders may be eligible to file directly with the IRS for free. The federal tool will transfer your information to Maryland's state tax tool, making filing easier. However, ṣayẹwo rẹ yiyẹ ni. IRS ṣe akiyesi pe eyi kii ṣe aṣayan ti o dara julọ ni awọn ipo kan.
