The Internal Revenue Service will host an open house Saturday at its Honolulu office to help to taxpayers dealing with notices and payments, return preparation and a variety of other tax issues.

The office, located at 300 Ala Moana, will be open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

"The focus of this Open House event is problem resolution," said IRS spokesman David Tucker II. "We want taxpayers to have the opportunity to work directly with our IRS staff during these special Saturday hours and have their tax issues solved."
