10 A ril 2 2002 ~Ex Individuals can now pay state income taxes online

Beginning this week, lon-tana individual taxpayers have the new ability to pay state in-come taxes onLne with a credit card or debir card.

Income Tax Express, as the ne\\' service is known, is the re-sult of Hou e Bill 192, spon-sored by Representative Doug Mood in the 2001 Legislati\'e

ession and signed into law by Governor Judy Manz.

Governor Marrz sees Income Tax Express as being perfecrly aligned with state government's ef-forts to make more services avail-able electronically.

"Ir is our goal ro ensure the best possible service from state government for rhe raxpayers of Montana," said Go\'ernor l'.lartz. "W/e are pleased to offer Income Tax Express because it provides Montana taxpayer a convenienr electronic paymenr option. You

can pa) your state income taxes any time of the day, in about five minutes, using the Internet," said Governor Martz.

Income Tax Expres may be used tO pay current year, past year or estimated taxes. The service is lo-ca red on the state's official " ' e b s i t e , < h t t p : I I www.discoveringmonrana.com/> www.DiscoveringMontana.com, and the Department ofRevenue's website, ''"'"'"Discoveringlvfonrana.com/rev-enue.

Income Tax Express is simple and srraighrforward. The tax-payer enters filing status, personal information and tax payment in-formation in a secure, protected environment. Afrer verifying the accuracy of the entered informa-tion, the taxpayer then makes an online payment with a credit card or debit card. The transaction generates a receipt that can be printed by the taxpayer for per-sonal records.

"Income Tax Express pro-vides individual taxpayers with a welcomed alternative to writing a check and mailing it to the de-partment. For many taxpayers, using a credit card will allow ex-tra rime to pay off their tax obli-gation. For some, it may offer the opportunity to accumulate airline miles, cash-back bonuses or other credit card premiums," said rev-enue director Kurr ALne.

Individual taxpayers using this system are still required to file an income tax return - electroni-cally or on paper - to the Depart-ment of Revenue.

"The technology-based ser-vices being delivered by the state provide more efficient and effec-tive ways of serving the citizens and businesses in our state. In-come Tax Express provides an option with greater convenience and flexibility to accomplish pay-ment interactions '..Vith state gov-ernment," stated Montana's chief

information officer, Brian Wolf. The taxpayer is assessed a 2.5

percent convenience fee for the ser-vice. The fee is calculated as a per-centage of the total tax payment amount and appears in the total payment price.

Income Tax Express is the re-sult of an alLance benveen srare government and the private sec-tor. The system was coopera-tively developed and is supported by the Montana Department of Revenue, the Montana Depart-ment of Administration's Infor-mation Technology ervices Di-vision, and Montana Interactive, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of e-government prm·ider IC ( asdaq: EGOV).

For more information on In-come Tax Express, visit www.DiscoveringMontana.com or call the Department of Revenue's Customer ervice Cen-ter at (-106) -1-1-1-6900.
