@AnnieK  You are reading correctly and your proposed solution is viable.

However, I have been known to make it work by filing a 502 part year return and including as MD income the MD source income earned while a nonresident.

VA has a similar rule.  When I've encountered it, it's always been when the only income after move-out has been rental income that ended up as a suspended PAL anyway.  The only way I know to do this (in any software I've worked with) has been to paper file the second return.  It's jumping through a lot of hoops for little to no tax difference (maybe in MD with the "local" tax surcharges potentially being different between PY and NR but even then I'd think we're looking at pretty small variances).
