Your Income Tax
No. 2
Forms for Making Returns

Forms for filing returns OF income
for 1882 have been sent to persons who
filed returns last year. Failure to re-
ceive a form, however. does not relieve
a taxpayer of his obligation to file his
return and pay the tax on time, on or
before March IS if the return is made
on the calendar-year basis, as is the
case with most individuals. Lowering
of the personal exemption will require
many hundreds of thousands of indi-
viduals to file returns this year who did
not do so in 1882.
Forms may be obtained upon request,
written or personal. from the Offices Of
collectors of internal revenue and
deputy collectors. Persons whose net
income for 1892 was derived chiefly
from salary or wages and was not in
excess of $4,000 should make their re-
turns on Form 1040A. single sheet.
Persons whose net income was in ex-
cess Of $4,000, or, regardless of amount,
was derived from a business, profession.
rents or sale of property are required
to use larger form, 1040. Failure to
use the proper form presents difficulties
to both the taxpayer and the Bureau OF
Internal Revenue Therefore, it is en-
phasized that q taxpayer engaged in .
business or profession from which he
derived q net income Of less than $5,-
600 is required to use the larger form.
The return must be filed with the
collector of internal revenue for the
district In which the taxpayer has his
legal residence or principal place Of
business on or before midnight OF
March Is, 1888. The tax may be paid
in full at the time of filing the return
