Withholding Tax Reconciliation

February 28 is the due date for Montana Form MW3 and corresponding W2/1099 forms.

Form MW3 for the 2008 tax year can be filed online for free. We encourage you to use this online service to file your original 2008 tax year form. Electronic filing offers several benefits, including:

  • Simple - Enter your business’ information into the online form, and click “submit.”
  • Accurate - Computer calculations are automatic and virtually error-proof.
  • Secure - Your business’ information is transmitted in a safe and confidential manner.
  • Convenient - You may submit your business’ annual W-2 and 1099 information electronically at the same time. For more information on this, click here.
  • Fail-safe - When your form has been e-filed, you’ll receive confirmation from us.

And, best of all, there’s no cost to you. We also encourage you to use the electronic payment options that are available through Business Tax Express.

Please note: At this time, amended or corrected forms cannot be filed online. Those forms need be filed on paper.
