Instructions

Amended Return Box should be selected if you have previously filed a return and need to increase or decrease tax liability.

Note: A separate MO-941 must be filed for each tax period in which tax liability needs to be adjusted.

If the increased return and payment are being submitted after the period(s) due date, penalties and interest will apply to the additional amount of tax liability reported. Visit http://dor.mo.gov/business/withhold to view the due dates in the Employer’s Withholding Tax Guide.

To show a decrease in liability: attach proper documentation for verification of changes made. Provide a copy of the W-2C if the

error was caught after the original W-2 was submitted. Provide a copy of the payroll ledger if the error was caught before a W-2 was issued. To correct withholding on a 1099-R submit a copy of the original 1099-R, and a copy of the corrected 1099-R to show the change in tax due.

Note: If documentation is not provided for an amended return, no changes will be made.

Note: if an overpayment has been authorized, the overpayment is subject to be used as an offset toward any debt. To receive a refund of the overpayment attach the Employer’s Refund Request (Form 4854). If no form is attached, overpayment(s) generated will remain as credit(s) on the account. For additional information and to locate the refund request form visit the Online Credit Inquiry
