Special Tax Mailings

Sign up to receive email updates when this page changes.

This is an index to special mailings sent throughout the year in the form of stuffers, letters, brochures or other items. These items may be mailed with tax returns or they may go out as a separate mailing. In most cases these items are mailed to industries affected by the notice as opposed to the entire taxpayer population.

Most of these documents will be PDF files. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader, you will need to download it to view and print these items.
