I live and work in NJ.  I also have a part-time job in a MD company (working remotely, I never go to MD in 2020).   I got a W2 from the MD company for the 2020 income.  In the w2, box c show the address of the company is in MD.  However, it shows the state as "NJ"   (Employer's state ID number shown as '821-xxx-xxx/000'.  '821-xxx-xxx' is the EIN number shown in box b) in box 15 and also have state tax withheld  in box 17.  Does this mean that I do not need to file MD tax?  Thank you very much

What does your professional tax preparer tell you to do?

"Employer's state ID number shown as '821-xxx-xxx/000'. '821-xxx-xxx' is the EIN number shown in box b"

You likely are confusing Fed EIN and State withholding EIN account number. Lots of States use their own numbering system for withholding.

You seem to be lost on the internet.
