INTERNAL REVENUE
DIRECTOR URGES CARE
IN FILING RETURNS
The District Director of Inter
nal Revenue announced today
that an estimated 30,000 taxpay
ers in the state of Washington
and in Alaska will be getting
their income tax returns back for
correction. The most common dis
crepancies that require correction
are:
1. Missing signatures. Separ
ate returns must be signed by
the individual making the return.
Joint returns must be signed by
both husband and wife. A return
on which exemption credit is
claimed for both husband and
wife is considered a joint return.
Joint returns must include the
income of both husband and
wife even though the income of
one spouse was less than $600.
2. Missing Forms W-2. All
Forms W-2 for wages and salar
ies must be attached to the re
turn to support the amount of
income and tax withheld shown
on the return.
3. Missing schedules. All
schedules for use by taxpayers
deriving income from farming,
business or profession must be
attached and made part of the
return.
4. Exemption credit for de
pendents. The names of all de
pendent children should be list
ed and their addresses if differ
ent from the taxpayer’s. When
claiming exemption credit for
persons other than wife and chil
dren, taxpayer must furnish
complete information in the
schedule provided on the return.
5. Exemption credit for hus
band and wife. If exemption
credit is claimed for both hus
band and wife, both names should
appear in the caption and both
j must sign the return.
Last-minute checking of re
turns for completeness will help
to avoid delay in processing, the
director pointed out.
