I am a resident of Florida and work remotely for a Maryland corporation.  The HR department started withholding Maryland taxes until they could get it corrected.  I am trying to check the box "taxes were withhheld by mistake on my Maryland non-resident return but I cannot find a way to do it.  The Maryland return is showing I owe money.  How can I change this so that I get a full refund?

    In the Maryland interview, you are asked to enter the amount of 'Maryland source' income. 

     

    Even though you don't live in Maryland, you are still taxed on income earned from MD sources.
