Use of federal return.
First complete your 2019 federal income tax return.
You will need the information from your federal return and all
schedules to complete your Maryland return. Before you continue
beyond this point, complete your federal return and all schedules.
Maryland law requires that your income and deductions be
entered on your Maryland return exactly as they were reported
on your federal return and schedules. However, all items
reported on your Maryland return are subject to verification,
audit and revision by the Comptroller’s Office.
5
Name and address information.
Complete the Name, Current Mailing Address - Line 1, Current
Mailing Address - Line 2 and Social Security number lines.
The Social Security number(s) (SSN) must be a valid number
issued by the Social Security Administration of the United States
Government. If you, your spouse or dependent(s) do not have
a SSN and you are not eligible to get a SSN, you must apply for
an Individual Tax Identification Number (ITIN) with the IRS. You
should wait until you have received it before you file. Enter it
wherever your SSN is requested on the return.
A missing or incorrect SSN or ITIN could result in the disallowance
of any credits or exemptions you may be entitled to and result
in a balance due.
A valid SSN or ITIN is required for any claim of exemption for a
dependent. If you have a dependent who was placed with you
for legal adoption and you do not know his or her SSN, you
must get an Adoption Tax Identification Number (ATIN) for the
dependent from the IRS. If your child was born and died in this
tax year and you do not have a SSN for the child, complete just
the name and relationship of the dependent and enter code
322, on one of the code number lines located on page 3 of the
form.

Generally, if you filed a joint federal return for 2019, you must
file a joint Maryland return. Married couples who file joint federal
returns may file separate Maryland returns when one spouse is
a resident of Maryland and the other spouse is a nonresident of
Maryland. If you and your spouse filed separate federal returns,
you must file separate Maryland returns. A surviving spouse
may file a joint return with a decedent if a joint federal return
was filed.

Exemptions.
Determine which exemptions you may claim and check the

EXEMPTIONS ALLOWED
You are entitled to claim qualified exemptions on the Maryland
return. The amount of your Maryland exemption may be limited

You and your spouse are permitted to claim exemptions for
being age 65 or over or for blindness. These addi tional
exemptions are in the amount of $1,000 each.
Complete the Dependent Form 502B and the exemption area on
the front of the Form 515 to determine the amount of exemption
allowance to enter on line 29. If any dependent is 65 or over,
you receive an extra exemption of up to $3,200. Make sure you
check both boxes.
10
Income and adjustments.
Complete lines 1-17 of the Federal Income column using the
figures from your federal return.
Enter in the Maryland Wage Income column all salaries or wages
derived from Maryland sources. Enter in the Non-Maryland
Income/Loss column all other income or loss. Adjustments to
federal gross income are not generally applicable to Maryland
unless they pertain to compensation for services performed in
Maryland.
If you also have income from Maryland such as business income,
rental income, lottery winnings, etc., other than salary, wages
or other compensation for services performed in Maryland, you
must file two nonresident returns. The wage income is taxed on
Form 515 and the non-wage income on Form 505.

Line 6: Subtract the exemption amount

Example:
Pat and Chris Jones had a federal adjusted gross income of
$180,000. They also had $40,000 on interest from U.S. Savings
bonds and had a dependent son whom they claimed on the
Maryland tax return. Using Instruction 9, they found that the
exemption amount on their Maryland return (based upon
$180,000 of income) was $2,400 ($800 for three exemptions).
If it were not for the $40,000 of U.S. Savings bonds, their
federal adjusted gross income would have been $140,000 and
their exemption amount would have been $9,600 ($3,200 for
three exemptions). Therefore, Pat and Chris Jones are entitled
to claim a subtraction of $7,200 ($9,600 - $2,400) on line 23
using code letter hh.

ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME (AGI) FACTOR.
You must adjust your standard or itemized deductions and
