School Information for Montana taxpayers

Montana taxpayers can decide to pay their state taxes directly to the school district of their choice rather than sending them to the state.

The program allows residents to make a cash donation to their local public schools and individuals or companies can contribute up to $200,000 per year for educational programs.

Married taxpayers filing jointly may take a tax credit of up to $400,000 for each tax credit, according to the Montana Department of Revenue.

The state sets an annual cap on the amount statewide that can be donated.

The portal for these donations will reopen on Oct 2nd and is anticipated to close quickly as the limits are met.
