SB 1419

SB 1419 - Current law requires a notice of tax deficiency to a taxpayer by certified or registered mail. This act instead requires such notice to be mailed by regular first class mail, or electronically at the taxpayer's request. This act is identical to SB 1419 (2026) and to a provision in SB 1420 (2026) and SCS/HB 2180 (2026), and is substantially similar to a provision in SB 666 (2025). JOSH NORBERG

Bill Summary · SB 1419

Legislative bill overview

SB 1419 modifies Missouri's procedures for mailing tax-related information to taxpayers. The bill adjusts how certain tax documents and notices are distributed, potentially affecting deadlines, delivery methods, or recipient requirements for state tax communications.

Why is this important

Tax notices and documents are critical for taxpayers to understand their obligations and exercise their rights regarding state taxes. Changes to mailing procedures can affect whether citizens receive timely information needed to file correctly, claim refunds, or respond to tax assessments.

Potential points of contention

  • Cost implications: Changes to mailing requirements could increase or decrease administrative costs for the Department of Revenue, with potential impacts on state budgets
  • Delivery reliability: Modifications to mailing procedures may affect whether all taxpayers reliably receive notices, particularly affecting vulnerable populations with unstable addresses
  • Compliance and deadlines: Altered mailing timelines could create confusion about when tax obligations begin or how long taxpayers have to respond to notices
