Employee Obligations (Which Returns YOU Must File)

Since Wyoming has no income tax, you won't face double taxation. However, if you physically work in Maryland, you may owe Maryland income tax (2%-6.5% (new brackets in 2025)) and need to file a nonresident Maryland return.

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.
