Get a copy of tax return from h&r block

Fill-out forms allow you to enter information into a form while it is displayed on your computer screen and then print out the completed form. You must have the Adobe Acrobat Reader 4.1 (or newer), which is available for free online. You can also print out the form and write the information by hand. Fill-out forms are better than hand written forms because they offer a cleaner and crisper printout for your records and are easier for us to process.

IMPORTANT: The Acrobat Reader does not allow you to save your fill-out form to disk. To do so, you must have the full Adobe Acrobat 4.1 (or newer) product suite, which can be purchased from Adobe. Maryland fill-out forms use the features provided with Acrobat 3.0 products. There is no computation, validation or verification of the information you enter, and you are fully responsible for the accuracy of all required information.

Completing the Form

When you click on your selected form, the file will open in Adobe Acrobat and you will see a cursor that is shaped like a hand. The hand cursor will allow you to move the form around on your screen when you click and drag. When you position the hand cursor on the form and click, the I-beam cursor will appear. The I-beam cursor allows you to select a field, a check box, a radio button, or an item from a list.

Use the Tab key to accept the field change and go to the next field. Use Shift + Tab to accept the field change and go to the previous field.

When you are finished filling out the form, use your mouse to select an area of the form outside of a form field before printing your form. If a form field is active (contains the blinking bar) the contents will not print. If the fill-out form is displayed within your web browser's window be sure to use the print button on the Acrobat toolbar menu to print the form instead of your web browser print function.

Choose the Right Income Tax Form

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, you can file long Form 502 and 502B if your federal adjusted gross income is less than $100,000.

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

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

If you are a nonresident and need to amend your return, you must 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, you must 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) 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, 2020. 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 2019 to amend your original tax return.

Offer in Compromise

Eligibility Requirements

In order to apply for this program you must meet all of the following eligibility requirements:

  • You have incurred a delinquent tax liability that has resulted in an assessment.
  • You have declined to pursue or exhausted all avenues of administrative appeal. You cannot make an offer in compromise if there is any issue currently under appeal.
  • Two years must have passed since you became liable for the tax.
  • You must have filed all returns required to be filed with the Comptroller's Office or have been assessed by the Comptroller's office for not filing a required tax return.
  • You must not be currently involved in an open bankruptcy proceeding.
  • For taxes owed by a business or the officers of the business, the business must be closed.
  • You are unlikely to be able to make payment in full any time in the foreseeable future due to your financial situation. You either are without resources or unable to apply present and/or future resources to paying the outstanding tax liability.

Instructions

Please verify that you satisfy all of the eligibility requirements above before completing the required forms.

When you complete Form MD 656, you should address all of the reasons you believe you cannot, or should not, pay the full amount due. You should offer an amount you are able to pay. A mere unwillingness to pay will not excuse you. We will consider the following circumstances when deciding whether or not to accept your offer in compromise:

  • Doubt as to liability. If you believe you don't owe the amount due, you must include with Form MD 656 a detailed explanation of the reason(s) you believe you do not owe the tax.
  • Insufficient resources. If you don't have enough assets or income to pay the full amount, you must include with Form MD 656 a complete financial statement, Form MD 433-A for individuals and/or Form MD 433-B for businesses.
  • Economic or other hardship. If you have enough assets to pay the full amount, but believe that because of your exceptional circumstances requiring full payment would cause an economic hardship or would be unfair and inequitable, you must include with Form MD 656 a complete financial statement, Form MD 433-A and/or Form MD 433-B.
