Employee Obligations (Which Returns YOU Must File)

If you physically work in Maryland, file a nonresident Maryland return (tax rate: 2%-6.5% (new brackets in 2025)). Then file your Nebraska return and claim the Nebraska Schedule I credit so you don't get taxed twice on the same income.

Employer Obligations (What Your Employer Must Withhold & Remit)

Register for withholding and unemployment from day 1. Unemployment applies to the first $8,500 of wages. PFML starts in 2027 with employer paying up to 0.45%.

City & Local Income Taxes (Extra Filings Beyond the State Return)

All 23 Maryland counties plus Baltimore City levy local income taxes. Nonresidents pay a flat 2.25% (doubled from 1.25% in January 2025). This is handled on the state return. Combined state plus local can exceed 8.75%. The M1CR credit does NOT cover the local portion.
