Mass-mailing of Mississippi income tax forms discontinued
The state of Mississippi will discontinue the mass mailing out of income tax forms to taxpayers.
The Mississippi State Tax Commission announced the decision Monday. The commission said forms and instructions will be available on its Web site beginning Jan. 11 or at its district offices or at public libraries across the state.
Commission chairman Ed Morgan says the change was made because the majority of the state’s taxpayers now using a computer to generate their returns. He says it is no longer economically feasible for the agency to mail forms.
Commission officials say they will save about $90,000 annually by discontinuing the mailings.
