What is the Student Scholarship Organization Credit?

Beginning on or after January 1, 2016, you can claim a credit for contributions made to a student scholarship organization. The donor cannot direct or designate contributions to a parent, legal guardian or specific qualified education provider. The amount of the credit allowed is equal to the amount of the donation, not to exceed $150.

Note: You cannot claim this credit if you deducted your contribution from your Montana taxable income.
