I am a part-year resident of Maryland and I want to use another method for allocating my itemized deductions. What do I do?

Send us a letter explaining the reasons why you want to use another method.

Be sure to include the following:

• A completed copy of your federal return, including Schedule A.
• A completed copy of the return you filed with the other state.
• A copy of the Maryland return to be filed.

If the other state does not have an income tax, then send a schedule showing the allocation of income and itemized deductions among the states.

The Maryland return must be completed in accordance with the alternative method requested.

Send the letter and documents to:

Revenue Administration Division
Taxpayer Accounting Section (Special Allocations)
