MVD meets challenge of better service
In the last five years, the Motor Vehicle Division has come a long way in improving customer service and our wait times.
In fact, some wait times are down by as much as 85 percent — with many customers around the state having to wait just under 10 minutes to receive help.
It wasn’t always like this. As many New Mexicans can attest to, taking a trip to the MVD used to be one of the most unpleasant — yet necessary — chores. Six years ago, that could mean waiting more than an hour to get help — not counting how long it would take to complete a transaction.
But things have changed.

TAJ's 2015/16 eCampaign reaps benefits
Tax Administration Jamaica’s (TAJ) eServices portfolio for the 2015/16 financial year indicates growth in the use of eServices in most areas. This is as a result of TAJ’s drive to change the culture of filing and paying taxes. This reflects a behavioural shift not only in the attitude towards paying taxes but also, paying taxes using non-traditional channels. Taxpayers continue to respond favourably to TAJ’s online services which were boosted by the expansion of the Revenue Administration Information System (RAiS) during the year.
