About 15 million taxpayers must y file by September 15th an estimate of their income and victory taxes on " 1943 income, or be liable to a penalty of 10 per cent on their tax. The purpose is to get tax collecting more completely on a pay-as* you-go basis. The government's idea 1 is: 1. To allow the Treasury to ; "catch up" with wage earners whose income may fall in higher surtax brackets tiian is covered by the with holding levy. 2. T o obtain quarterly payments ' on 1943 income from merchants, doc' tors, lawyers and others who re ' ceive income which is not subject J to withholding. 5 The A in the ABCs of this busi1 ness is to find out whether you must file a declaration. You must file if you are: 1. Single, and expect to receive in 1943 or received in 1942 an income ol more than $2,700 in wages subject to a withholding levy. Or income of more than S100 from oth. er sources, provided total income is S500 or more. 2. Married and expect to receive in 1943 or received in 1942 an income of more than S3.500 in witholding wages Or income of more than S100 from other sources, provided_your total income exceeds $624 or the aggregate income of you and your spouse amounts to $1,200 or more for either 1942 or 1943. 3. Single or married, and were required to file an income tax return for 1942 and your wages subject to withholding for 1943 are expected to be less than wages for 1942. Army Exemptions Persons in the military services, however, get a special exclusion from taxation of $1,500 in service pay. Therefore a single person in the armed forces would have to receive $2,000 in service pay and a married person more than $2,124 to get into the declaration class. Moreover, military personnel in foreign countries and on the setis get declaration deferments. The safest way io make out a tax declaration is with expert help at a local office of a collector of internal revenue. Here's how to fill out the form: Obtain a computation form which is provided by the revenue bureau along with the declaration blank. There are two kinds of computation forms, a simplified form and an alternative form similar to the long return used for March 15 reports. Estimating Table Tiie short form has a tax estimating table which simplifies work and it automatically provides for liberal deduction. However, if deductions such as interest, taxes and heavy medical expenses, run as high as 10 per cent of gross income, use of the alternative form probably is advisable. Let's say you use the simplified form. You are married, have two dependent children, and an estimated total 1943 income of $3,600 in salary. List this income on the first line of the computation form. On thn npvt lino nut tntal dprliif>tinn? 52,120. That includes $1,340 for married and $390 for each child. The deduction if single is $560. Subtracting the $2,120 from $3,600 leaves $1,480. The table shows the tax on $1,480 is $252. Next, estimate what you owe in victory tax for the year. Subtract $624 (the amount of yearly wages exempt from Victory tax) from S3,600. That leaves $2,976 subject to tax. You take 3 per cent of the latter amount....$89.28. That's your estimated Victory tax. Added to $252 income tax. it makes a total estimatel 1943 tax of $341.28. Now take your declaration form. On the first line put down $341.28 Next estimate total income and Vic tory tax which will be deducted from your wages. First there is the matter of Victory tax deducted from January 1 to July 1 before the new withholding levy went into effect. Computing Tax If you can't get the total figure from your employer, compute it this way: Your income in this case foi the half year was $1,800. Subtract $312, (half the full year victory ta> exemption of $624) and that leaves SI,448. Victory tax deductions or $1,488 at the rate of 5 per cent amount to $74.40. Then estimate combined income and Victory tax withholding from WANTED Hickory logs, and Dogwood sticks. For specifications and prices write MOUNTAIN CITY HICKORY DOGWOOD COMPANY Mountain City, Tenn. 9-9-8c < xM RY THURSDAY?BOOKE. N. C your salary between July 1 and Do cenrber 31. Be:-', way to do that is ti multiply the amount deducted Iron each paycheck by the number o pay checks you expect to receive tb.< iasi six months of the year. In out sample case the tax wilholding i: $28.80 on monthly pay of S300. Tin total wit hold trig tax for six month: is $172.30. Add that to the $74.70 V'c '.ore tax witheld in the first sit i months ar.d you get an estimate; witlioiding for the entire year o: $247.20. Next on the declaration form vol subtract the $247.20 from the S341.2) your total estimated tax for 1943 That leaves 534.0S. But you can sub tract the payments made last Marcr and June on your 1942 income tax Say your total tax in 1942 wat $163.40 and your March and Jun< payments amounted to half of that or S81.70. Subtract the 381.70 fron $94.08. and you have $12.38. That": the unpaid balance of estimated tax You are required to pay half, oi $6.19 w ith your Sept. 15 declarator and the other half on Dec. latr when you make a simliar declara tion. If your 1942 wages were as large as those in 1913. however, chances are your taxes will be overpaid anc the g< vernment tentaively will owe you money. You will not get a re fund until you make your annua; return for 1943 next March anc then it will depend upon whethei that final return shows you to be overpaid.
