HB 1035 Maryland House of Delegates · 2026 Regular Session

Income Tax - Subtraction Modification - Overtime Compensation

HB 1035 modifies Maryland's income tax code to allow residents to subtract certain overtime pay from their taxable income, aligning with federal tax rules. It directly affects Maryland taxpayers who earn "qualified overtime compensation" as defined under Section 225 of the federal Internal Revenue Code. The bill adds a new provision (Section 10-208(dd)) specifying that qualifying overtime pay - already deductible under federal law - can be subtracted when calculating Maryland adjusted gross income. The change applies to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025, and expires June 30, 2029. This is a temporary policy adjustment, not a permanent tax rate change.
