New Mexico
New Mexico taxes your Social Security benefits. Individual income tax rates might range from 1.7 to 4.9 percent. Even so, taxpayers who are 65 or older might be eligible for a tax deduction of up to $8,000, depending on their income.
But do you want to hear an interesting exception? New Mexico’s residents who get to be 100 years old or more and aren’t claimed as a dependent by other taxpayers are exempt from filing and paying state income taxes.

I understand that the Maryland Legislature just changed how much retirees pay in income taxes. I have not been able to find out the specifics of the new law. When does it take effect? What are the income limits? Can I now reduce the State witholding from my Minimum Required Diatributions?
