Maryland State Refund: Approved with Adjustment - Real 48hr Deposit Timeline?
My Maryland state refund status shows approved but adjusted. Says it should hit my account in 48 hours. Anyone know how to find out what got adjusted and if the 48 hour timeline is actually accurate? Getting anxious about the changes they made.

Tax professional here with Maryland experience. When you see 'adjusted,' it typically means they've modified your refund amount based on their calculations. You can check the specific adjustments by logging into your Maryland OneStop account or calling the Comptroller's office at 1-800-MD-TAXES. As for the 48-hour timeline, it's usually pretty accurate, but it can depend on your bank's processing time.

•Yeah the phone lines are swamped this time of year. Try early morning calls, usually shorter wait times.

Hey guys instead of playing detective with your transcript, I've been using taxr.ai and it's a game changer. For $1 it analyzes everything and tells you exactly what's going on with adjustments and timing. Way better than guessing or waiting on hold forever https://taxr.ai

Just went through this same situation last month! The adjustment was minor in my case - they corrected a deduction I claimed that didn't match their records. The 48-hour timeline was spot on for me with Chase bank. To ease your anxiety, you can also check if Maryland sent you any correspondence through your OneStop portal explaining the adjustment details. Usually it's nothing major!

•Thanks for sharing your experience! That's really reassuring to hear. I'll definitely check the OneStop portal for any correspondence - didn't even think to look there. Hopefully it's just a minor correction like yours was 🤞
