I live in an income tax free state for a reason
According to the State of Maryland, we were not required to file state income taxes in 2004. A few months ago, they sent me a letter, fishing to find out why we hadn't sent them any money that year. I sent them back a reply, as requested, along with a copy of our property tax records for 2004, showing that we still owned a home in Texas and therefore qualified for the rule printed right there under the question "Am I required to file?" in their tax booklet.
Instead of receiving a nice, "Oops, we're sorry!" letter, I have instead received a request for more information. They want to to send them all relevant 2004 tax information, along with a copy of my driver's license. Shouldn't they already have all that shit?
