The agency’s timing guidance
The Comptroller explains adjustment, missing-information and direct-deposit issues. Keep a copy of your filed Maryland return for the official service.
Use the correct official service
Open the official state agency page below and follow its refund-status link. Keep the filed state return available for that service. Enter sensitive tax information only on the official agency website.
Keep federal and state processing separate
Your federal and state returns can be accepted and reviewed at different times. An IRS approval does not establish a state payment date. Follow the state tracker and any state notice for the next step.
Official phone contact
410-260-7701. Official agency contact; follow its current refund instructions. Check the official telephone guidance.
Questions you might have
When will my Maryland refund arrive?
Use the current-year refund tracker or automated line. These agency estimates or tracker instructions are not a guaranteed payment date.
Where do I check a Maryland refund?
Use the official Maryland agency page linked here. Enter personal details only in the official service; this site never asks for them.
Does my federal refund date predict my state refund?
No. Federal and state returns are processed by separate agencies. Their acceptance dates, reviews and payment dates can differ.
What if my state return needs review?
The Comptroller explains adjustment, missing-information and direct-deposit issues. Keep a copy of your filed Maryland return for the official service.
