After you file

State Impact

You will have to file a nonresident Colorado state tax return to get back the taxes your employer withheld for CO. 

Be sure to prepare your nonresident state return (CO) first.  That way, the taxes paid to CO will flow correctly to the MT return in order to generate a credit for taxes paid to another state.

Federal Impact

On your federal return, it doesn't matter which state collected the taxes.  If you itemize deductions, the withholding for both states will flow to Schedule A from your W-2s.
