Dear Editor: From the Horseman

Dear Editor,

Some more insight from the Horseman.

Last week I received a letter from Montana Department of Revenue billing me for my livestock per capita fee on my horses, due May 31, 2021. They did not seem to have record that I paid it in February, so I gave them the check number. I had no idea what they were going to do next. Then, this Saturday, I get a letter from the Department of Revenue, Marla Wolstein Auditor of Business and Income Tax Division. The letterhead top right corner was Greg Gianforte and his director, Brendan Beatty. They had no record of me filing my state taxes in 20167. So, I sent them a letter from my CPAs and called my accountant and they were going to take care of it.

They are so messed up on their record keeping they are going to try and double tax and triple tax all Montana residents, then fine them because they cannot find the records. Makes you wonder how many hands are dipping in the pot because they have no records.
