State Income
Tax Coming Up

Tax Coming Up
| More than 81, 200 State income
tax returns have been filed with
the State Board of Equalization
at H e e n since Juanary /,
according to A. E. Simon. chair
man of the board. The tax paid
was $685., 500. The total numer
OF returns filed last year was
$50, 600. This would indicate
that 20 per cena Of the total num-
Der of returns to be filed this
year have already been received.
The early preparation of re-
turns at ford an affords an
opportunity to recheck each item
to see that the returns balance
with the records of income and
expense. 1t also enables taxpay-
ers TO make inquiries about doubt
full questions before t h e final
closing date arrives for filing re-
turns.
The Board states that the daily
mail is filled with letters from
taxpayers making inquiries about
income tax questions.
This is a healthy sign indicating
that taxpayer are taking plenty
OF time to prepare their returns
so that errors and omissions
will be avoided.
The legislatuse just closed en-
acted law which permits med
ical expense deductions, W IN
celtain limitations. Thir bill does
not permit any medical expense
deductions for 1862.
Husband and wife filing jointly
may claim a personal exemption
credit of $4,000. If they sepa-
rately the ere dit is divided
equally between them. The per-
sonal exemption for single
person is 81, 900.
A credit of $500. may be claim
ed as a deduction for each
dependent. The income of all
dependents ella m &c must be
included in the return of t he
parent. Fractional year returns
are required for those who resid-
ed in the state for only a frac-
tional part of the year. The
$1,000. and $4,000. personal
exemption credit must be reduced
onia fractional basis.
The penalty for filing late
returns is S per cent, but not less
than So, plus per cent per
month. Many delinquent tax
payers believe h at the law
permits the Board to omit the
collection of penalties. This is a
mistakened idea. The collection
of penalties is mandatory on the
Board.
The present income tax law was
adopted in 1888. All taxpayers
are presumed to know about the
tax laws of the State. Anyone
in doubt should write the Board
or contact one of the representa-.
tives in the field officer. The
Board is not required to sit on
every mans doorstep and tell
him when he is required to file
a return, nor is it required to
furnish every resident with a
blank form, so that his attention
may be called to the income tax
laws. AS a matter of courtesy
forms have been mailed to each
taxpayer who filed 1851 returns.
The Board is prepared to furnish
blanks to all taxpayers upon re
quest.
