FAQ
Maryland employs a graduated income tax system with rates ranging from 2% to 5.75%, which can significantly impact your net income based on your earnings level. While more complex than some other states, Maryland's tax code includes various deductions and exemptions that affect your paycheck.
Claiming a Qualifying Child or Qualifying Relative means you may be able to claim specific tax benefits. Qualifying child: You may be eligible to claim the Child Tax Credit, Child and Dependent Care Credit, Other Dependent Credit, Earned Income Tax Credit, or file using the Head of Household filing status.
Families who can claim exemptions for themselves, their spouses, and their dependents are most likely to have 3-5 exemptions.
Eligible Marylanders receive $500 per qualifying child from the state Child Tax Credit!
EXEMPTION AMOUNT CHART The personal exemption is $3,200. This exemption is reduced once the taxpayer's federal adjusted gross income exceeds $100,000 ($150,000 if filing Joint, Head of Household, or Qualifying Widow(er) with Dependent Child).
Standard Deduction - The tax year 2024 standard deduction is a maximum value of $2,700 for single taxpayers and to $5,450 for head of household, a surviving spouse, and taxpayers filing jointly.
