State restoration routes

What your state's own remedy is, who decides it, how long it takes, what it costs, and what it does — and does not — do about the separate federal bar. One row for each jurisdiction that we have checked, with its statute and the day we checked it.

MONTANA · Mental-health relief programme (922(g)(4)) · on Oct 9, 2026

No route in this jurisdiction

In short
The Department lists no relief-from-disability programme for Montana. Where a jurisdiction offers no relief at all, the Department's FAQ says a person "may apply for federal relief without having gone through your state first". The Department adds that this list "may be subject to change".
