SB 691 - This act requires mandatory withholding of retirement income which includes withholding for entities outside of Missouri. The term retirement income is defined as any annuity, pension, or retirement allowance as defined in Section 143.124.1, RSMo. A taxpayer is granted the option to have additional withholding or, upon written notification, the taxpayer may elect not to have an amount withheld from their payment. The administration, collection, and enforcement of the withholding tax will be done in the same manner as employer withholdings. This act is identical to SCS/SB 310 (2005).
