What you'll need

File and pay electronically at revenue.maine.gov. The form states that electronic filing and payment requirements apply.

Enter the withholding amount from Schedule 2P, line 12, on line 1 and estimated payments on line 2. If line 1 is greater, enter the difference as the amount due on line 3a. If line 2 is greater, enter the difference as the refund amount on line 3b.
