How each Maryland line is calculated

Maryland withholding includes both state and county/local income tax components. The app now emits a separate Maryland local line using the resident county or Baltimore City for residents, and the 2.25% nonresident local add-on for nonresidents working in Maryland.

Line Who pays Rate Wage base
MD County Income Tax
Local Maryland withholding based on county or Baltimore City for residents, with the 2.25% statutory nonresident local add-on for nonresidents.
 Employee Bracket or formula based No cap
MD State Income Tax
Annualized Maryland state withholding brackets from the current state-tax model.
5 annualized brackets
Annual wages over But not over Base tax Plus

$3,000 $100,000 $90 4.75%
$100,000 $175,000 $5,662 5.75%
$175,000 $250,000 $9,987 5.75%
$250,000 and up $14,300 5.75%
Employee Progressive brackets No cap
MD UI Contribution
Maryland unemployment insurance is employer-paid. The exact contribution depends on the employer's assigned Maryland UI rate and the current annual taxable wage base, so the calculator should capture the employer's Maryland contribution-rate notice for an exact amount.
 Employer User supplied No cap

Official sources

Some state or local tax rules for this jurisdiction are still partial and may require user-entered rates or manual review. Some employer-side state taxes depend on employer size, assigned unemployment rates, or program elections. Review the line notes before relying on those totals. Some state-specific lines need additional answers before the calculator can resolve all applicable rates: EmployerAssignedRatePercent, EmployerTaxableWageBase, resident county, work county.
