Paycheck taxes in Montana

Montana has two brackets for 2025 — 4.7% up to $21,100 single / $42,200 joint and 5.9% above — computed from federal taxable income, so the federal standard deduction effectively applies. Long-term capital gains get preferential rates of 3.0% and 4.1%, so this estimate overstates tax on large long-term gains. A 2025 law cuts the top rate to 5.65% in 2026 and 5.4% in 2027, but 2025 rates are unchanged.
