ANNAPOLIS, Md. (February 10, 2025) — The Comptroller of Maryland has reissued 1099-G forms to an estimated 6,000 Marylanders who mistakenly received forms belonging to other taxpayers earlier this month, due to an internal printer malfunction.

The error affected a limited number of forms sent to incorrect addresses. Once the agency learned of the error, it took immediate action, encouraging individuals to shred documents they received in error and making changes to its processes to further protect taxpayer information. For instance, forms completed by the agency will no longer include full social security numbers.

Taxpayers can download a duplicate form online at www.marylandtaxes.gov/1099G   

The Office of the Comptroller will pay for one year of credit monitoring for all impacted individuals through Kroll, a company specializing in identity theft protection. Affected individuals will receive an additional notification in the mail from Kroll containing information on how to activate their services.

Affected taxpayers with concerns can call 410-260-7980 or 1-800-638-2937 and select “option 2.” They can also email gad@marylandtaxes.gov with the subject line “1099G Issue.”
