Astoria, OR – According to the state officials, this error impacted 32,960 out of 122,245 mailings, meaning some individuals may have not received a tax form 1099-G at all, and others may have received an additional form not belonging to them.
A machine error caused some of this subset of tax forms to go into envelopes already containing a tax form 1099-G.
The Department of Administrative Services was first notified of this error during the ongoing printing and mailing process for tax form 1099-G and called for an immediate halt, which prevented the majority of these forms from being impacted.
This was an issue caused by a contractor but is ultimately the Department of Administrative Services’ responsibility. We take ownership of this error and are correcting this mistake immediately.
Upon learning of the problem, the Department of Administrative Services ordered its contractor to halt the mailing job immediately, which prevented the majority of forms from being impacted.
The Department of Administrative Services will finish the mailing and will re-send tax form 1099-G to the entire subset of approximately 32,960 mailings impacted.
This work will be completed by Jan. 31, 2024.
