ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) – Maryland’s tax collector is announcing help for federal workers affected by the partial federal government shutdown.
Comptroller Peter Franchot said Tuesday that federal contractors, furloughed employees and people working without pay who are now on payment plans with the state may be granted reduced or even suspended payments during the shutdown.
The aid will help federal workers with personal income liabilities and other outstanding tax obligations.
The comptroller’s office says each request will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
