rent tax in quarterly installments?

quent years 1t must be filed on

Nature Of Declaration.
Al. Question. viii the declaration
OF estimated tax be In the nature
of a regular income-tax return?
Answer. No: it will simply state
the amount of estimated income tax
and net Victory-tax liability for the
year, based on the estimated income
and deductions and allowing for the
current credit against the Victory
tax liability In case the taxpayer
elects to take 1t currently.
From this amount will be SUBJ
tracted the estimated amount which
has been and is to be withheld at
the source during the year, If any,
both under the per cent Victory
tax withholding and the new 20
per cent withholding. The re-
mainder constitutes the amount of
estimated tax to be paid directly to
the collector of internal revenue.
AZ. Question. Are not the 1912 tax
payments made on March Is and
June Is of this year to be credited on
the 1943 liability?
Answer. Yes.
43. Question. When is this credit
taken?
Answer. The amounts paid on
the 1942 liability are credited when
the declaration Of estimated tax for
1943 is filed September Is. (Those
not required to file the declaration
of estimated tax will take credit for
these payments on the 1912 tax
when their final return for 1943 Is
filed on March is, l944)
Let us assume that John Doe had
a 1912 tax of $400 and paid $100 on
account March Is, 1943, and another
500 on June Is. Let us assume fur
ther that his estimated tax on 1943
income is $500, and that the amount
estimated to be withheld at the
source during the year under the
per cent Victory tax withholding
and the 20 per cent Withholding
commencing July is $500.
This would leave balance of $500
Evening star., 1943-06-25

for 1914, to be filed March IS. 1914,
could be amended the following June
Is, September Is and December Is.
When a revised declaration OF esti-
mated tax is filed the remaining
installment payments are to be
ratably increased or decreased to
reflect the increase or decrease in
the estimated tax.
