Montana Form 2Ez PDF Details

The Montana 2EZ form serves as a simplified income tax return for residents of Montana who are either single or married filing jointly, with the notable stipulation of having no dependents. Designed to streamline the tax filing process, this form assists eligible filers by focusing on essential income sources, such as wages, salaries, tips, taxable interest, dividends, and unemployment compensation. It also guides filers through adjustments to their federal adjusted gross income, allowing for specific subtractions that lead to the determination of the Montana adjusted gross income. Furthermore, the form provides a straightforward methodology for calculating tax liability, incorporating standard and personal exemptions alongside tax deductions, ultimately helping taxpayers ascertain their tax due or refundable amount. Additionally, the form outlines procedures for reporting and calculating penalties, interest on underpayments of estimated taxes, and options for making voluntary contributions to state funds. Notably, this form suggests alternative forms for individuals who might benefit more from itemized deductions or who have more complex tax situations, ensuring that every taxpayer can navigate their tax obligations within Montana efficiently.

Calculation of Interest on Underpayment of Estimated Taxes – Short Method Worksheet (If you made estimated tax payments, Form 2M or Form 2 would be a better option for you.)

Montana law requires you to pay your income tax liability throughout the year. You can make your payments through employer withholding, through installment payments of estimated taxes, or through a combination of employer withholding and estimated tax payments. You are not required to make estimated tax payments if one of the following conditions applies to you:

Your combined tax liability after you applied your withholding and estimated tax payments is less than $500.

You did not have a 2012 income tax liability and you were a citizen or resident of the United States the entire year.

You retired in either 2012 or 2013 after reaching the age of 62.

You became disabled in either 2012 or 2013.

You are a farmer or rancher and 66-2/3% of your 2013 gross income is derived from your farming and ranching operation. Your 66-2/3% farming and ranching income is determined annually and is based on your 2013 gross income. Montana does not apply a “lookback” provision in determining farming and ranching gross income.

If you did not pay in advance at least 90% of your 2013 income tax liability (after applying your credits) or 100% of your 2012 income tax liability (after applying your credits), you may have to pay interest on the underpayment of your estimated taxes.

If you are required to pay interest on your underpayment, you can use this short method to determine your interest, but only if one of the following conditions applies to you:

You made no estimated tax payments (in other words, your only payments were Montana withholding); or

You made four equal estimated payments by the required due dates.

If you are not eligible to use this short method to calculate your interest on your underpayment, use Montana Form EST-I, Interest on Underpayment of Estimated Tax Payments. This form is available on our website at revenue. mt.gov, or call us toll-free at (866) 859-2254 (in Helena, 444-6900).
