MAINE REVENUE SERVICES MISSION STATEMENT The mission of Maine Revenue Services is to fairly and efficiently administer the tax laws of the State of Maine, while maintaining the highest degree of integrity and professionalism. IMPORTANT CHANGES for 2019 Use tax (sales tax). 36 M.R.S. § 1861-A. For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2019, the calculation used to report unpaid use tax on the Maine individual income tax return is lowered from .08% to .04% of Maine adjusted gross income. Municipal volunteer program for property tax assistance subtraction modifi cation. 36 M.R.S. §§ 5122(2)(EE) and 6232(1-A). The $750 limitation on benefi t earnings under the municipal volunteer property tax assistance program is increased to $1,000 or 100 times the state minimum hourly wage under Title 26, section 664, subsection 1, whichever is greater. To the extent included in federal adjusted gross income, the benefi ts earned may be excluded from Maine taxable income. Installment sales of real or tangible property – nonresident individuals. 36 M.R.S. § 5147. For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2019, nonresident individual taxpayers may elect to recognize the entire gain from an installment sale of real or tangible property located in Maine in the taxable year of the transfer or the remaining gain in a subsequent taxable year to the extent the gain has not been reported in a previous tax year. The election is irrevocable and may only be made on a timely fi led original income tax return. 2 Apportionment of Income – sale of a partnership interest. 36 M.R.S. § 5211. For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2019, the income tax apportionment calculation with respect to the sale of a partnership interest owned by another business entity (C corporation, S corporation, partnership, etc.) must be based on the gross receipts, rather than on the gains or losses, from such sales. This change is made to eff ect consistency with the general business apportionment calculation, which is based on gross receipts. Maine Fishery Infrastructure Investment Tax Credit. 36 M.R.S. § 5216-D. For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2019, the Maine fi shery infrastructure investment tax credit is repealed. Partnership audit adjustments. 36 M.R.S. c. 815. For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, a partnership that has not elected out of the federal centralized audit regime under Internal Revenue Code, Section 6221(b) and is subject to an IRS audit must report information aff ecting the Maine tax liability of its partners to the assessor within 180 days from the fi nal determination date of the audit. A pass-through entity that is a partner in an audited partnership is also subject to the reporting requirement with respect to the portion of adjustments applicable to that partner. In some cases, the partnership could be subject to tax on some or all of the audit adjustments at the partnership level.

For additional answers to frequently asked questions (faqs), visit www.maine.gov/revenue/faq/homepage.shtml. What is my Residence Status? To determine your residency status for 2019, read the following. Domicile: Domicile is the place an individual establishes as his or her permanent home and includes the place to which he or she intends to return after any period of absence. A number of factors associated with residency are relevant in the evaluation of a claimed domicile. A domicile, once established, continues until a new, fi xed and permanent home is acquired. To change domicile, a taxpayer must exhibit actions consistent with a change. No change of domicile results from moving to a new location if the intent is to remain only for a limited time, even if it is for a relatively long duration. • • Full-Year Resident: 1) Maine was my domicile for the entire year of 2019; or 2) I maintained a permanent place of abode in Maine for the entire year and spent a total of more than 183 days in Maine. • • “Safe Harbor" Resident (treated as a nonresident): General Safe Harbor - Maine was my domicile in 2019, I did not maintain a permanent place of abode in Maine, I maintained a permanent place of abode outside Maine and I spent no more than 30 days of 2019 in Maine. Individuals qualifying under the safe harbor rule will be treated as a nonresident for Maine individual income tax purposes. File Form 1040ME and Schedule NR or NRH. Foreign Safe Harbor - I spent at least 450 days in a foreign country during any 548-day period occurring partially or fully in the tax year. The taxpayer must also meet other eligibility criteria. If you qualify for the Foreign Safe Harbor, you will be considered a “Safe Harbor” Resident and treated as a nonresident for the 548-day period even though you were domiciled in Maine. • • Part-year Resident: I was domiciled in Maine for part of the year and was not a full-year resident as defi ned in 2) above. File Form 1040ME and Schedule NR or NRH. • • Nonresident: I was not a resident or part-year resident in 2019, but I do have Maine-source income. Follow the federal fi ling requirements for fi ling status, federal adjusted gross income, and standard or itemized deductions. File Form 1040ME and Schedule NR or NRH. For additional information on determining Maine residency or if you are in the military, see the Maine Revenue Services Guidance to Residency Status and Guidance to Residency “Safe Harbors” available at www. maine.gov/revenue/forms (click on Income Tax Guidance Documents) or call the forms line at (207) 624-7894.
