I am the spouse of an active duty military memeber. We currently reside in Maine, due to military orders and I work remotely for a company in Maryland.  We are both domiciled in Tennessee. I had taxes taken from both Maryland and Maine this year. I chose non resdient for both Maine and Maryland and Maine refunded my money, but Maryland kept my taxes decucted and also wanted $325 more. How do I file to get that money back, as I am not a resident of Maryland? Thank you!

The problem is that your employer listed your wages as Maryland wages in box 15 on your W-2 form. The Comptroller's office in Maryland will consider the wages as taxable in Maryland based on the entry on that form. You will have to contact the Comptroller's office to file a complaint.
