Under the old system, you were obliged every March 15th to pay either the full tax for the previous year, or a quarter of that amount. Under the new system, you will keep paid up from month to month. After July 1st, your employer is obliged by the new law to with- hold every month a part of your wages and turn the money into the ¥niud States Treasury as payment on your Income and Vietory Of course, the amount that your employer withholds will depend upon your pay.and your exemptions. But this is the important point: For most of us, the amount withheld over a year’s period will add up to the same that we’ve paying now—plus.or minus a few dollars. At the m\dflh yesar, we may owe the Gowernment a few dollars or the Governnibnt may owe us. (See the tables below.) You may have heard 209 mentioned as the proportion of your wages that will e withheld. Actually, this is incorrect. To figure the amount that will be withheld, take your total wages and subtract your allowance for ememptions and allowance for dependents; 20% of this Jesser amount is the total that will be withheld. Now please remember this: You must claim those exemptions to take advantage of them. Before July 1st, you must file with your employer an Exemption Certificate. If you do not do this, your em. ployer will have no choice but to deduct 20% of your full pay check. Here is how the new tax collection method will work: Lat's mmnmkin‘m-nnminl&m-ym;thntyoumnmiw. and have two children. First of all, as & married man you are allowed a personal with- holding exemption of $1,248, plus an exemption of $312 for each dependent (other than your wife). This makes a total exemption of $1872 ($1,248 for yourself and wife, plus $62¢ for your two dependents your tax is computed. You are thus paying tax on $L.1: your employer will withhold 209, or $225.60 for the year. fore, in your pay eavelope, after July 1, you will receive shout $4.40 less each week. i In March, 1944, when you ordinarily would be taxes on your 1943 income, you will file s return show; you have already paid, and how much your total ‘tax actuilly amounted to. If, by that time, you have already paid mere than yon actual tax due, you will be given credit for the differetice, owe more than you have paid, you will pay the difference.. . Since this plan starts July 1, many wonder what happens to thi tax payments they will already have made by that time—on Mas 15 and June 15. ‘- For a great majority of people, here is what lisppend.’, .. ¥ 1942 income tax is “forgiven” (either all, or moet of and June installments which you originally paid on tax are credited, instead, as payments on your 1943 h result that on July lst, with the year half gone, you heve elrbed paid "’f on that half-year’s income.
