Yes, if you meet the qualifications below. If you were self-employed, what refund would you expect?

WHO MUST FILE FORM D-40B– 1. Any nonresident of the District claiming a refund of District income tax withheld or paid by declaration of estimated tax. A “nonresident” is any individual– (a) whose permanent home (domicile) is outside the District of Columbia during the entire calendar year, and (b) who did not maintain a place of abode within the District for an aggregate of 183 days or more during the taxable year. 2. Any individual who wants a ruling as to his/her liability for District of Columbia income taxes for any taxable year.

WHO MUST NOT FILE FORM D-40B– Residents of the District requesting refunds of income tax must file Form D-40. You are a D.C. resident if– (a) the District of Columbia was your permanent home (domicile) at anytime during the calendar year, or (b) you maintained a place of abode within the District for an aggregate of 183 days or more during the taxable year.

Do I have to file a DC income tax return?
You must file a DC tax return if:

You were a resident of the District of Columbia and you were required to file a federal tax return. (A resident is an individual domiciled in DC at any time during the taxable year);
You maintained a place of abode in DC for a total of 183 days or more even if your permanent home was outside of DC;
You were a part-year resident of DC (see instructions for part-year residents);
You were a member of the United States (U.S.) armed forces and your home of record was the District of Columbia for either part of or the full taxable year;
You are the spouse of an exempt military person or of any other exempt person such as a nonresident presidential appointee or an elected official;
If you want to receive a refund of DC taxes withheld during the year, or if you qualify for and want to receive the following refundable credits:
- The DC Earned Income Tax Credit;
- Schedule N, Non-Custodial Parent Earned Income Tax Credit;
- Schedule H, Homeowner and Renter Property Tax Credit; or
- Schedule ELC, Keep Child Care Affordable Tax Credit (formerly Early Learning Tax Credit).
