The Missouri Department of Revenue has reopened its Jefferson City Tax Assistance Office in room 330 of the Harry S Truman State Office Building on West High Street.

The office is open to the public from 7:45 a.m.-4:45 p.m. Mondays through Fridays.

Tax experts will be available to provide assistance with business tax registration, income tax compliance, corporate income tax questions, lien/garnishment resolution, and electronic filing for online filing and payments, among other services.

The Jefferson City Tax Assistance Office was one of seven such offices that closed in 2014. At the time, the closings were described by state officials as a spending restriction decision made by then-Gov. Jay Nixon.

"A principle focus of the leadership of the Department of Revenue over the last year has been to dramatically enhance our level of customer service from where it has been in the past," Department of Revenue Director Joel Walters said in a news release. "Reopening the tax assistance office is part of a larger, renewed commitment to serving our customers better."
