Jay explains

Maryland's paid family and medical leave program collects contributions from January 1, 2027 at a rate set each year, split between employer and employee (employers with fewer than 15 employees pay no employer share), reported every quarter to the FAMLI Division. The first report covers the quarter ending March 31, 2027. The rate is set by the program each year, so the figure on the agency page is the one to use, and a payroll provider normally files the report.

A payroll provider normally prepares and files this. Obligare shows it anyway, marked as the provider's, because the company stays liable if it is missed.

Three answers to start. Refine it after.

What kind of organization is it?

An LLC's tax treatment decides which federal return it files. Choose the line that matches yours. Nonprofits are covered too.

State of formation

Employees

Count everyone on payroll. An S corporation's working owners are employees: they are paid a salary.

Where is it based? The state of the office, or of most of the people

A company based outside its state of formation is registered in both and files in both.

More about the company: other states, payroll, dates, abroad

Company name

Date registered in each other state

Optional. Some states key their report to the day you registered there rather than your date of formation; without it, the formation date stands in and the calendar says so.

Who runs payroll?

Fiscal year ends in

Date of formation

Needed for states that key filings to the anniversary of formation.

Annual revenue

Some taxes start at a revenue threshold.
