New Stat Income
Tax Withholding
Rates Due Sept. 1
A now state Income tax with
holding schedule, based on the
new withholding rates establish
ed by the last legislature, has
been published by the Oregon
State Tax Commission. The new
rates are Intended to closely ap
proximate the actual tax liabil
ity of each taxpayer, taking into
account the amount of his sal
ary and the number of his de
pendents. The new withholding rates are
to apply to all paychecks receiv
ed by employees beginning Sep
tember 1. according to S. W. Horn,
Tax Commission chairman. He
points out that the rates were
raised from 1 to 2 in 1956 but
the recent legislature authorized
to Commission to publish tables
that would include allowances
for exemptions so that the am
ount withheld would more nearly
equal the tax liability of each
taxpayer.
The newly published tables al
so give instructions to employees
preferring to use a percentage
system for their own convenience,
to do this a formula is contained
in the publication that will en
able the employer to compute the
percentage withholding for the
various pay periods and salaries.
Examples of the new rates
show that a single man with a
monthly salary of $500 will have
$25.00 withheld from his check.
For a married man with four ex
emption credits the amount
would be $14.70. A married man
listing five exemptions and $100
weekly income would have $1.70
withheld from his paycheck. All
of the amounts shown in the
tables are based on the new rates
of Income taxation approved at
the last legislature.
The tables are being sent to al!
employers currently listed on the
Tax Commission's mailing list.
Others desiring copies should ad
dress a request to the Tax Com
mission in Salem, or ask for a
copy at any of the Commission's
field offices, Horn said.
