PAYMENT PLANS TO RESOLVE MONTANA BACK TAXES


Montana Department of Revenue (MT-DOR) has a few options available for businesses and individuals struggling to pay their tax obligations.  

If you owe MT-DOR and you can afford to pay your liability in full within 24 months, you may be able to easily set up your payment plan online with the Taxpayer Access Point.  

If you need more than 24 months, then your request will have to be reviewed by a representative at the department.  If you call in, here are the basic guidelines.
  • Payment plans have to be within 24 months, unless you agree to a tax lien filing, in which case the MT-DOR may grant you 36 months.
  • the lowest monthly payment is $50, as long as the total tax debt is paid within 24 months.
  • Payment plans are automatic withdrawals from your bank account, so be prepared to provide your banking information.
  •   A down payment is helpful, especially if you need a low monthly payment, but not necessary.
If your business owes the Montana Department of Labor and Industry, you can expect similar payment terms.

REDUCE YOUR MT-DOR TAX DEBT


Penalty Relief


MT-DOR does not have an Offer in Compromise program available to settle your tax debt for a lesser amount.  

The only way we’ve discovered to convince the MT-DOR to remove penalties is to prove that the accrual of the back-taxes was due to written advice from the MT-DOR.  Other than that, it seems you are pretty much stuck with the penalties.  

MONTANA TAX RESOLUTION CASE EXAMPLES


The Montana Department of Revenue has some flexibility when it comes to back tax liabilities.  Each case varies based on factors such as your compliance history, type of tax owed and total amount past due.  Here are some case examples in your state negotiated by M&M.
