MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- There has been yet another mailing error affecting Wisconsin residents.

The state Department of Administration says there has been a mailing error affecting taxpayers in some northeast Wisconsin communities. A spokesman for the department declined Tuesday to release any more details in advance of a late morning news conference.

The news comes after a vendor for the state wrongly sent out 260,000 brochures earlier this month with the Social Security number of addressees on the front.

That mailing went to Medicaid, SeniorCare and BadgerCare recipients.

A little over a year ago, another vendor hired by the Department of Revenue mailed about 171,000 tax forms with Social Security numbers on the label.
