This year, for the first time, many tax payers must file two, possibly three, income tax re turns: (a) the regular return filed March 15th; (b) a "declara tion" of 1943 "estimated tax" to be filed September 15th or De cember 15th, 1943, or on both dates. It is important that the tax pay-' er file his return on time in or der to avoid penalty. It is sug gested that a return be filed if j you are in the class for which a return is required, although you do not have an opportunity or! the necessary information to file return. An inaccu rate return may be corrected be fore December 15, 1943, and all penalties thereby avoided. An individual is required to file a declaration of estimated 1943 taxes if his income brings him within any one of the following classes: (1.) Gross estimated wages for „ • 1943 in excess of $2700 (single) or $3500 married, (aggregate of husband and wife). (2.) Gross actual wages for * 1942 in excess of $2700 Tsingle or $3500 married, (aggregate of husband and wife). (3.) Gross estimated 1943 in come from sources other than wages in excess of SIOO, if single, or SIOO if married (aggregate of hu3- » band and wife), and, gross i income from all sources ' (wages and other) in excess of SSOO, if single, or SI2OO if married (aggregate of husband and wife), or $624 — ■—■ ■■ ; * The World's News Seen Through - I ;; THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR 1 An International Daily Newspaper S L T ™ , F^.'~ f n, i n,CI t V '-, Unbi « , « d - Fr «« from StHMlionai. | T L Af ' T" ae 'f and Inwuciive, and Iu Daily g ' 1 STBSALRBS W ,"^ ,he Wtekly M.g«in.
