Choose the Right Income Tax Form

Your residency status largely determines which form (paper or electronic) you will need to file for your personal income tax return.

If you are a Maryland resident, file Form 502 and 502B.

If you are a Maryland resident and need to amend your return, file Form 502X.

If you lived in Maryland only part of the year, file Form 502.

If you are a nonresident, file Form 505 and Form 505NR.

If you are a nonresident and need to amend your return, file Form 505X.

If you are a nonresident employed in Maryland but living in a jurisdiction that levies a local income or earnings tax on Maryland residents, file Form 515.

Special Situations

If you are self-employed or do not have Maryland income taxes withheld by an employer, you can make quarterly estimated tax payments as part of a pay-as-you-go plan, using Form PV. Please refer to Payment Voucher Worksheet (PVW) (PDF) for estimated tax and extension payments instructions.

If you owe additional Maryland tax and are seeking an automatic six-month filing extension, you must file Form PV along with your payment by April 15, 2026. You should file Form PV only if you are making a payment with your extension request.

If you need to make certain changes to your original Maryland return that has already been filed and processed, you must file Form 502X for 2025 to amend your original tax return.
