PACK EIGHT
Income Tax Must
Be Filed by Many
Before December 15
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Robert Hannagan today urged
ali taxpayers to determine if they
art required to file either original
or amended "Declaration of Estimated
Income and Victory Tax" on
or before December laExplaining
that only a limited percentage
of taxpayers need make any
filing at this time. Mr. Hannegan
suggested that everyone ascertain
for himself whether he is affected.
By far the largest percentage of
taxpayers have no further filings to
make until the annual income and
Victory tax return is due r.ot later
than March 15. 1944. However,
si n: taxpayers who filed 'declarations
in September have an installment
to pay December 15. for which
they will be sent bills by their local
collectors of internal revenue.
In general, the filing of a declaration
or. or before December 15.
will bt required of the following:
i Farmers who have sufficient
income to require tiling and have:
postponed filing under the special
provisions of law which permit farm- '
ers to wait as late as December 55.
2. Persons who did file in September
but underestimated their
tax by more than 20 per cent and
who should, therefore, file "amended
declarations" tc avoid penalties.
3. Persons who did not file in
September because their estimated
income at that time was insufficient
to require filing, but now come within
any one of the following classes:
a Anyone who expects to have
during the calendar year 1943 more
than S100 gross income from a
source outside of wages which are j
subject to withholding and who also ]
ex u, cts^sufficient gross income to
require filing an income tax return I

Any single person expecting
wages at men than $2,700 during
'he year.

d. Any person who was required j
' to file an income tax return for j
j 1942 and who expects his wages it; <
j 1943 to be less than in 1942.
There may be some taxpayers I
j who filed declarations in September
and paid one-half of the remaining S
| tax estimated to be due. but who
; now believe that the amount for t
' which the collector will bill them ;
j in December is more than they r
j should pay. These taxpayers may t
' also file amended declarations cor- v
! reeling their previous estimates and
recompute the amount of their in- ,
stallments to be paid in December. a
In such cases the amended declara- t
tion should be accompanied by the ?
bill received from the collector, to- .
