502SU form missing

I notice if I select e-file for the MD State tax return, the 502SU form is included as part of  the print document, however, if I select not to e-file, that form 502SU is not attached anymore. Is this a bug within TurboTax? I just notice it this year, but I realize it's also missing last year, so my MD state tax return was missing this 502SU form for all these years. Any idea why this happens?

    If you have only one subtraction on Form 502SU, including the form with your state return is optional.  This may be what you're seeing for a return to be mailed.

     

    If there's only one subtraction, the amount and code letter would simply appear on line 13 of Form 502, with no Form 502SU needed.

     

    According to Line 13, SUBTRACTIONS FROM INCOME in the Maryland State and Local Tax Forms and Instructions, [i]f only one of these subtractions applies to you, enter the amount and the code letter on line 13 of Form 502; then the use of Form 502SU may be optional.
