Refund on the Way

The Montana Department of Revenue is paying refunds based on 2021 individual and couple tax returns. Distribution began in July and should finish on December 31.

The rebates are part of an income tax refund effort and can reach $2,500 for married joint filers and $1,250 for solo filers.

The refund amount is the smaller of the taxpayer’s filing status maximum or line 20 of their Montana 2021 income tax form. Montana taxpayers must have lived in the state for the entire 2021 tax year, filed 2020 and 2021 tax returns on time, not been claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax forms, and have a figure greater than zero on line 20 of their Montana 2021 income tax form to receive the rebate.
