Saturday morning when the snow was melting so rapidly, people began to wonder if this would be like the flooding last year, however the creek ben was able to hold all the water this time.

Short, District Director of the Internal Revenue Service in Oregon. The peel-off label, which is encoded with the taxpayer's name, address, and Social Security number, is designed off THE 'T Pl3HT UNDO? use Ihe iwet-ott latlgel a spaediat la. tatund' to expedite processing at IRS Service Centers and prevent common errors that can delay issuance of refund checks. One of the common and yet most troublesome errors that can be avoided by use of the label saves the government about ten cents in processing costs due to automation, error can take weeks or even months to unscramble. Short said., and is one of the major causes of delaved refund checks. The label should be used even if the taxpayer has t moved. Short advised. Tax payers should check the label to make sure the information is correct. Any erroneous information should be crossed out and corrections made directly on the label. The IRS also noted that each label is the listing of an incorrect or illegible Social Security number. Such an Additional savings can be, realized if taxpayers used the preaddressed, coded envelope which speeds sorting of tax returns during the annual deluge of mail that arrives at the ten IRS service centers.
