42.15.214    RESIDENT MILITARY SALARY EXCLUSION

(1) The following items of military compensation received by a resident service member are exempt from Montana income tax:

(a) basic, special, and incentive pay received for serving on active duty as a member of the regular armed forces;

(b) basic, special, and incentive pay received for serving on active duty as a member of the National Guard under Title 10 USC orders;

(c) basic, special, and incentive pay received by a member of a reserve component of the armed forces or a member of the National Guard, for active duty in a "contingency operation" as defined in 10 USC 101; and

(d) basic, special, and incentive pay received by a member of the National Guard performing a "homeland defense activity" as defined in 32 USC 901.

(2) Military compensation that is not exempt from Montana income tax includes:

(a) salary received for annual training and inactive duty training for service not described in (1)(b) through (1)(d);

(b) salary received by a member of a reserve component of the armed forces for service not described in (1)(b) through (1)(d);

(c) salary received by a member of the National Guard engaged in "active Guard and Reserve duty" as defined in 10 USC 101, for service not described in (1)(b) through (1)(d); and

(d) retired, retainer, or equivalent pay, or allowances.

(3) As provided in the Military Family Tax Relief Act of 2003, for federal income tax purposes a member of a reserve component of the armed forces may deduct certain travel expenses incurred after December 31, 2002, in connection with serving more than 100 miles away from home. Because the deduction reduces federal adjusted gross income, the deduction also reduces the service member's income subject to Montana tax.
