Your Income Tax
FORMS FOR MAKING RETURNS.

Forms for filing returns of income
for 1885 have been sent to persons
who filed returns last year. Failure
to receive form, however, does not
relieve taxpayer of his obligation to
file his return and pay the tax on
time, on or before March 16 If the re-
turn is made on the calendar year
basis, as is the case with most indi-
viduals.
Forms may be obtained upon re-
quest, written or personal. from the
offices Of collectors Of internal revenue
and deputy collectors. Persons whose
net in come for 1885 was derived
chiefly from salary or wages and was
not in excess Of $4,000 should make
their returns on form 1040A.
Persons whose net income was in
excess of $4,000, or, regardless Of
amount, was derived from a business,
profession, rents or sale of property,
are required to use larger form, l040.
Failure to use the proper form pre-
sents difficulties to both the taxpayer
and the Bureau of Internal Revenue.
Therefore, 1t is emphasized that tax
payer engaged in business or profes.
sion from which he derived net in
come Of less than $4,000 Is required to
use the larger form.
The return must be fled with the
collector Of internal revenue for the
district In which the taxpayer has his
legal residence or principal place Of
A-f~ trh nf
March 16, 1886. The tax may be paid
In full at the time Of fling the return
