North Dakota has income tax reciprocity agreements with Montana and Minnesota.
If the taxpayer is a resident of North Dakota and maintains a permanent home in North Dakota to which they return at least once each month during the time they work in Minnesota, the compensation received for personal or professional services performed in Minnesota is not taxable by Minnesota. Also, wages received for work performed in Montana while a resident of North Dakota are not taxable by Montana.
If the taxpayer received wages covered by reciprocity and the employer withheld Minnesota or Montana income tax from them, file a nonresident income tax return with the applicable state to obtain a refund of the amount withheld.
