IMPORTANT NOTES
You must file your Maryland Amended Form 502X electronically
to claim, or change information related to, business income tax
credits from Form 500CR.
Changes made as part of an amended return are subject to
audit for up to three years from the date that the amended
return is filed.
WHEN AND WHERE TO FILE
Generally, Form 502X must be filed within three years from the
date the original return was due (including extensions) or filed.
The following excep tions apply:
• A claim filed after three years, but within two years from the
time the tax was paid is limited to the amount paid within the
two years immediately before filing the claim.
• A claim for refund based on a federal net operating loss
carryback must be filed within 3 years after the due date
(including extensions) of the return for the tax year of the
net operating loss.
• A claim for refund resulting from a credit for taxes paid to
another state must be filed within one year of the date of the
final notification by the other state that income tax is due.
• If the claim for refund or credit for overpayment resulted
from a final determination made by an administrative board
or an appeal of a decision of an administrative board, that is
more than three years from the date of filing the return or
more than two years from the time the tax was paid, the
claim for refund must be filed within one year of the date of
the final decision of the administrative board or final decision
of the highest court to which an appeal of the administrative
board is taken.
• If the United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issues a
final determination of adjustments that would result in a
decrease to Maryland taxable income, file Form 502X within
one year after the final adjustment report or the final court
decision if appealed.
• If the IRS issued a final determination of adjustments that
would result in an increase to Maryland taxable income, file
Form 502X within 90 days after the final determination.
Do not file an amended return until sufficient time has
passed to allow the original return to be processed. For
current year returns, allow at least six weeks. Note that
no refund for less than $1.00 will be issued.
The amended return must be filed electronically or with the
Comptroller of Maryland, Revenue Administration
Division, 110 Carroll Street, Annapolis, Maryland 21411-
0001.
For more information regarding refund limitations, see
Administrative Release 20.
PROTECTIVE CLAIMS
A protective claim is a claim for a specific amount of refund
filed on an amended return with a request that the Comptroller
delay acting on the refund request. The claim for refund may
not be based on a federal audit. The delay requested must be
due to a pending decision by a state or federal court which will
affect the outcome of the refund, or for reasonable cause. The
protective claim must be filed in accordance with the limitations
outlined in the section WHEN AND WHERE TO FILE.
The Comptroller may accept or reject a protective claim. If
rejected, the taxpayer will be informed of a right to a hearing.
We cannot accept a protective claim unless an original return
has been filed.
PENALTIES
There are severe penalties for failing to file a tax return, failing
to pay any tax when due, filing false or fraudulent returns or
making a false certification. The penalties include criminal
fines, imprisonment and a penalty on your taxes. In addition,
interest is charged on amounts not paid when due.
To collect unpaid taxes, the Comp troller is directed to enter
liens against the salary, wages or property of delinquent
taxpayers.
PRIVACY ACT INFORMATION
The Revenue Administration Division re quests information on
tax returns to administer the income tax laws of Maryland,
including determination and collection of correct taxes. If you
fail to provide all or part of the requested information, the
exemptions, exclusions, credits, deductions or adjustments
may be dis allowed and you may owe more tax. In addition, the
law provides penalties for fail ing to supply information required
by law or regulations.
You may look at any records held by the Revenue Administration
Division which contain personal information about you. You
may inspect such records, and you have certain rights to
amend or correct them.
As authorized by law, information furnished to the Revenue
Administration Division may be given to the IRS, a proper
official of any state that exchanges tax information with
Maryland and to an officer of this state having a right to the
information in that officer’s official capa city. The information
also may be obtained with a proper legislative or judicial order.
USE OF FEDERAL RETURN
Most changes to your federal return will result in changes on
your Maryland return and you will need the information from
your federal amendment to complete your Maryland amended
return. Therefore, complete your federal return first. Maryland
law requires that your income and deductions be entered on
your Maryland return exactly as they were reported on your
federal return. However, all items reported on your Maryland
return are subject to verification, audit and revision by the
Maryland Comptroller’s Office.
If you are amending your federal return, attach a
photocopy of the federal Form 1040X and any revised
schedules to your Maryland Form 502X. If your tax has
been increased by the IRS, you must report this increase to the
Maryland Revenue Administration Division within 90 days from
the final IRS determination.

year. Enter the result on line 11.
A separate calculation of the earned income credit is required
when computing the local income tax. Use the worksheets in the
appropriate instructions to compute the local credits and enter
the result on line 11a. If you were a part-year resident, you
must prorate the local credits using the Maryland income factor.

BALANCE DUE OR OVERPAYMENT.
Calculate the balance due or overpayment by subtracting
the total on line 20 from the amount on line 14 and enter
the result on either line 21 or line 22.
Enter the tax paid with the original return plus any additional tax
paid after filing on line 23 (do not enter interest or penalty paid),
OR enter the overpayment from your original return plus any
additional overpayments from prior amendments or adjustments
on line 24.
If there is an amount on line 21:
• and line 21 is more than line 23, you owe additional tax.
Enter the difference on line 26 and compute the interest due
using the interest rates in Instruction 11.
• and there is also an amount on line 24, you owe additional
tax. Add the two together and enter the total on line 26.
Compute the interest due. See Instruction 11.
• and line 21 is less than line 23, you are due a refund. Enter
the difference on line 25.
If there is an amount on line 22:
• and line 22 is more than line 24, you are due an additional
refund. Enter the difference on line 25.
• and there is also an amount on line 23, you are due an
additional refund. Add the two together and enter on line 25.
• and line 22 is less than line 24, you owe additional tax. Enter
the difference on line 26 and compute the interest due using
the interest rates in Instruction 11.
Previous interest and penalty
Interest and/or penalty charges for the year you are amending,
whether previously paid or still outstanding, may be adjusted as
a result of your amendment. Any payments made on the account
have been applied first to penalty, then to interest and lastly to
tax due. These payments may require reallocation depending on
the result of the amendment. We will notify you of the net bal-
ance due or refund when we have completed processing your
Form 502X.
NOTE: If all or part of the overpayment on your original return
was credited to an estimated tax account for next year, we can-
not reduce or remove this credit without specific authorization
from you. If you have a balance due, and wish to apply monies
credited to a 2019 estimated tax account, attach written autho-
rization for the amount to be removed. Interest charges are
assessed even if the balance due is paid from the 2019 account.
11
INTEREST ON TAX DUE AND INTEREST FOR
UNDERPAYMENT OF ESTIMATED TAX.
Interest must be computed and paid on any balance of tax
due. Interest is due from the date the return was origi-
nally due to be filed until the date the tax is paid. Interest
is due at the rate of 10.5% annually or 0.9167% per
month for any month or part of a month that a tax is paid
after the original due date of the 2019 return but before
January 1, 2021. For assistance in calculating interest
for tax paid on or after January 1, 2021, see the Comp-
troller’s website.
UNDERPAYMENT OF ESTIMATED TAX
If you do not meet the requirement for avoidance of interest for
underpayment of estimated tax, obtain Form 502UP online at
www.marylandtaxes.gov or from any office of the Revenue
Administration Division. Complete and attach it to your amended
return. Enter any interest due on line 27 of Form 502X.
If you calculated and paid interest on under payment of estimated
tax with your original return, recalculate the interest based on
your amended tax return, and attach a copy of a revised Form
502UP showing your recalculation.

CHANGE OF RESIDENT STATUS.
Be sure to enter a full explanation of the change of
resident status in Part III on page 4 of the amended form.
If you are changing your resident status from a resident to a
nonresident, see Instruction 14. Complete Part III with a full
explanation of your reasons for the change. A nonresident of
Maryland is subject to tax on income from Maryland sources;
that is, wages and salaries from services performed in Maryland,
income from business carried on in Maryland, gambling winnings
from Maryland sources, income from pass-through entities with
Maryland income and gain or loss from the sale of property
located in Maryland. Other income (interest, dividends, pensions,
salaries or business income from sources outside Maryland, etc.)
may be subtracted. Itemized deductions must be allocated
according to the Maryland income factor. Exemptions must be
prorated according to the Maryland income factor.
If you are amending to show part-year resident status, include
dates of residence and indicate the other state of residence in
Part III. Subtract all income received during your nonresident
period. If you have any losses or adjustments to federal income
that do not pertain to the resident period, you must show them
as additions. Your standard deduction or itemized deductions and
exemptions must be prorated according to the Maryland income
factor. Be sure to enter the dates of residence in Part III and
attach a photocopy of the income tax return filed with the other
state or states of residence. If you are changing your status from
a nonresident to a resident, you must use Form 502X and follow
the instructions as written.
Maryland Income Factor
You must adjust your standard or itemized deductions and
exemptions based on the percentage of your income subject to
Maryland tax. Divide your Maryland adjusted gross income (line
5) by your federal adjusted gross income (line 1) to figure the
percentage of Maryland income to total income. Use amended
amounts if either of these lines were changed. The factor cannot
exceed 1 (100%) and cannot be less than zero (0%). If line 5 is
0 or less, the factor is 0. If line 5 is greater than 0 and line 1 is
0 or less, the factor is 1. Another method of allocating itemized
deductions may be allowed if you receive written approval prior
to the filing of your return.
14
NONRESIDENTS.
Generally, nonresident taxpayers will use Form 505X and
Form 505NR to amend their return; however, nonresidents
who wish to amend Form 515, must use Form 502X and a
revised Form 505NR.
In addition, if you are changing from nonresident to resident
status, you must use Form 502X and see Instruction 13.
15
NET OPERATING LOSS (NOL).
To claim a deduction for a federal NOL on the Maryland
return, you must first calculate the NOL for federal
purposes. A deduction will be allowed on the Maryland
return for the amount of the loss actually used on the
federal return. The amount of loss used for federal
purposes is generally equal to the federal taxable income
(before loss is used) or the federal modified taxable
income as calculated for the year of carryback or
carryforward.
An addition or subtraction modification may be required in a
carryback or carryforward year when the federal NOL, or the
year to which the NOL is carried, includes certain items included
in certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code from which
the State of Maryland has decoupled, including items included in
certain special depreciation allowances and 2-year carryback
provisions (farming loss only).
An NOL generated when an individual or a business entity is not
subject to Maryland income tax law, in a tax year beginning on
or after October 22, 2007, cannot be used as a deduction to
offset Maryland income. For acquisitions or liquidations occurring
on or after October 22, 2007, the acquiring business entity which
is subject to Maryland income tax law cannot use the acquired or
liquidated business entity’s NOL as a deduction to offset Maryland
income, if the acquired or liquidated business entity was not
subject to Maryland income tax law when its NOL was generated.
An NOL being carried forward from tax years beginning before
October 22, 2007 can be used until exhausted.
An addition to income may be required in a carryback or
carryforward year if the total Maryland additions to income
exceeds the total Maryland subtractions from income in the loss
year. The required addition to income represents a recapture of
the excess additions over subtractions. The addition to income
required is generally equal to the lesser of the NOL deduction in
the carryback year or the net addition modification (NAM) in the
loss year unless the loss year includes a decoupling modification.
For more information regarding NAM, refer to Administrative
Release 18.
If you elect to forego a carryback for the loss year, a copy of the
federal election for the loss year must be attached with the
Maryland amended return.
You must attach copies of amended federal Form 1045 or
1040X, whichever was used for federal purposes, and a
copy of the federal income tax return for the year of the
loss. Also include Schedules A and B of Form 1045 or the
equivalent worksheets used to develop the federal NOL
and show the amounts used on the federal return in the
carryback or carry forward years. Check the appropriate
CARRY BACK or CARRY FORWARD box on page 1 of Form
502X.
