Last December, the Department released Form MW-4, which includes a section for employees who qualify for one of four exemptions from wage withholding:
- Enrolled tribal members living on the reservation of their tribe, if their wages are earned on that reservation.
- North Dakota residents earning wages in Montana.
- Reservists and National Guard members, generally when they receive a Title 10 order.
- Spouses of military service members who are in Montana to be with their spouse, and who earn wages.
These exemptions must be renewed every year by employees.
For more information about these exemptions see Publication 1, and the instructions of Form MW-4.
