From KRQE-TV.com - ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - New Mexico no longer will automatically mail out personal income tax packages to individual taxpayers. The Albuquerque Journal reports that the move is expected to save the state more than $70,000. The Department of Taxation and Revenue says that last year, it mailed tax packages to 88,000 individuals at a total cost of $140,000. This year, the department will send those same taxpayers a postcard urging them to file electronically, and tax packages will be mailed only if requested. Officials say that paper filings have an error rate around 28 percent because of illegible information that results in human errors. Read more
