You will receive a sep- ara*e refund for the additional amount claimed. Q—Should I keep the extra forms you sent me for estimated tax? I only needl'd one to make my deolaration. A -Yes, the other three pre addressed voucher forms in the e.stimated *ax package should be used for your remaining estimat ed tax payments. He sure to keep your estimated tax worksheet since the figures on it will he used to determine your payments. A ri‘mindor notice will be sent to taxpayers in ad\’ance of the quarterly payment due in June. Q—I mailed my return just before the deadline. When should my refund come? A The increased volume of re turns received by IKS during April should extend slightly *he .'>•6 week processing cycle for re fund returns that are accurately and completely prepared. You should have your refund within 10 weeks from the date you filed or, in any event, a letter frf»m IRS explaining why it is delaye<l. Q - What’s ‘he raje J should pay /'hen I report my maid’s So cial Security taxes this quarter? A -The rate is 4.8 percent for the employee and 4.8 percent for the employer making the combin ed rate of 9.6 percent. Employers who paid a household employee 350 or more in to*al cash wages during January', F'ebruary and March should pay 9.Q percent of the total wages to IRS using Form 942. The deadline for paying these taxes is April 30. —I’ve moved and the address h liildrti ■r^ ELECT lEBRY MUILINAX, CANDIDATE FOB WABO 2 COHHISSIONEB I am pleased with the progress Kings Mountain is enjoying at the present time; yet I, as a candidate, think there is room for more. I do not oppose the issues the Mayor or his Council are striving to ward today. I am very much involved in the safety of our cornmunity. As many of you know we have suffered several losses of lives due to our rail road crossings. It would be of great ex pense to put warning signals at all crossings I'm sure, but I think SQjme- tning should be done at the least ex pense. I WQUIfO GREATLY APPRECIATE YOUR VOTE & SUPPORT ON MAY 13lh. wrong on the label on my return. Should 1 still use the label? A—Yes. Correct the informa tion on the label and send it back with your return when you file. Use of the label has help^ re duce the number of refunds de layed in processing because ot missing nr inaccurate' Social Se curity numbers. Q -The man I worked for ias‘ spring has gone out of business and I can’t get a W'2 from him. What should I do? A-Check to see if you have any pay stubs from this jobtwhich would enable you to determine your income arid tax withholding from this source. Attach a note to your re*um shoiwing the em ployer's name and explain why this income is not covered by a W-2. Indicate how you arrived ai the income and withheld tax fig ures entered for this employ ment. Q My tax came to more ‘han I thought i* would. Can I pay half now and the rest in a couple of months? A -No. The tax must be paid in full by the due date of the return. To avoid a similar situation next year, arrange with your em ployer to increase wi‘hholding tax or file an estimated tax dec laration and make instalimcntj payments of the tax due. Lf you i did not receive an estimated tax declaration in the mail, ‘he iorms and instructions may be obtained from local IRS offices. Q—Is money from Social Se curity ever taxable? A- No. All Social Security ben efits are tax exempt. Q - I have to pay tax on both my 1968 return and my 1969 dec laration. Can I just wri‘e one check for the whole amount? A- It is advisable to write separate checks or money orders for the two taxes to make sure your payments are properly cre dited. Identify each check with your name and social security number and indicate the tax the payment covers. The reason for making separate paymentg is that separate pro- c^'ssing operations are involved: for the tax return and for the I estima*ed declaration. VV'^hen one payment is made to cover two lia bilities, it is possible that the en-i tire amount could be credit^ to just one tax. This results in a re fund on one “ax and bill for ad-; ditional lax on the other. If you file a joint return while your husband is in Vietnam, in-, dieate in the place for his signa ture that he is serving in a com bat zone.
