WHO MUST PAY SCHOOL TAX: All male and female persons over 21 and under 55 years of age must pay the school tax ($5.00 for each person); & female person who is unemployed and who depends for her support entirely on her husband is not required to pay the tax; persons in the active military or naval service of the United States, paupers, insane persons and those cared for by the Territory or who are permanently injured, infirm, maimed or crippled are also exempt. WHEN PAYABLE: The tax is payable after the first of January in each year. It must be paid to the Tax Commissioner upon demand. If no demand is made for pay- ment, it must, nevertheless be paid to the Tax Commissioner or his authorized deputy within the time prescribed by law. Please remember that no demand or notice is re- quired to be made or given; but, as indicated, if such demand is made, the tax must be paid immedtately. A penalty of 50% will attach if the tax is not paid within the allotted time. EMPLOYER MUST FURNISH LIST OF EMPLOYEES AND PAY TAX. Whenever requested by the Tax Commissioner or his authorized deputy any employer who has people working for him who are stibject to the payment of the tax, must furnish a list of his or its employees together with the age of each of them to the collector, and must pay the tax due from each of them. When such payment is made by the employer, the col- Jector must give him a School Tax receipt for each tax paid and the amount thereof may be deducted from the employec's wages. DOUBLE PAYMENT OR PAYMENT BY MISTAKE: Any person who pays the tax when he or she is not liable therefor, or if it is paid by an employer for his employee when such employee is not subject thereto, has the right to claim refund of the amount paid; such person should first request the school tax collector to make such refund and if this cannot be done, he should forward such request to the Tax Commissioner at Juneau, giving his receipt number. Upon receipt of such request the Tax Comfl.\!ssloner will investigate and if he finds that the tax was paid by mistake, he will make the refund jmmediately. Remember that request for refund must be made not later than ninety days after the end of the calendar year during which the tax was paid. NON-RESIDENTS SUBJECT TO TAX. The Tax is payable by non-residents as well as residents. If the non-resident is merely a sight-seer or tourist, he or she is not required to pay the tax; but if he or she comes to the Territory for the purpose of en- gaging in business or employment and actually does so, though not a resident, he or she becomes liable for the payment of the tax. PURPOSE FOR WHICH TAX IS LEVIED: This tax is collected to assist in the education of the children of Alaska.
