It’s time to file your tax returns, and the Montana Department of Revenue has a tip for folks 62 and over: Check if you qualify for the Montana Elderly Homeowner/Renter Tax Credit.
It’s worth up to $1,000, even for those who are not obligated to file a personal income tax return.
To qualify, the senior must: Be 62 or over, Live in a household with less than $45,000 in gross household income, have lived in Montana as an owner or renter at least six months in 2018, and have been a resident of Montana at least nine months of 2018.
Remember, the credit is “refundable,” meaning Montanans who owe no personal income tax can still receive the credit.
For more information call the Department of Revenue at (406) 444-6900 or visit revenue.mt.gov.
