B
Mails 54 Refund
Checks via Story
Salem - With the assistance
of the Mail Tribune, the State
Tax Commission has been
able to deliver 54 Income tax
refund checks it had previous
ly been unable to get to per
sons who had given Jackson
county addresses on tax re
turns. This represents 36 per
cent of the 151 unclaimed
checks listed.
Using the statewide average
of $13 per unclaimed check,
this means that more than
$700has been returned to per
sons who otherwise might not
have received refunds to
which they were entitled, the
tax commission noted.
The 36 per cent recovery
for Jackson county is excel
lent, Tax Commission officials
said, since the statewide aver
age at this time is approxi
mately 17 per cent. However,
some areas in Oregon are now
being covered in the newspa
per campaign to return the
tax money to its rightful own
ers. At present, the state total
of unclaimed refunds deliv-
ered is 814 from a beginning
total of 4,800.
The Tax Commission re
ported that changes of name
and address among women
who marry or become di
vorced, other changes of ad
dress without notice to the
commission.e rroneous ad
dresses, and postal service
failure are the main reasons
why fhe refunds were not de
livered in the year of issue.
The list went back to the 1954
tax year.
However, in some uses the
taxpayer himself was not
aware that he had a check
coming, the refund being the
result of Tax Comm'ission
auditing, and by the time the
refund was mailed, he had
moved without leaving a for
warding address.
Undei state law, unclaimed
checks are held for seven
years, after which the money
goes into the state's general
fund, requiring an act of the
Legislature to get it back.
Faraway Place
The Jackson county list
published in the Mail Tribune
brought responses from such
faraway places as Dos Palos,
La Puento, Sacramento, Ingie
wood, Pacoima, Leggett and
Gasquet, all in California; Og
den and Salt Lalse City, bth
in Utah; Overton, Nev.; West
minster, Colo.; Fariingt,
N. M.; Dallas, Twc.t id Hon
olulu, Hawaii. The latter was
from a soldier stationed there.
The letter from Salt Lake
CItv was from a former Med-
ford couple whose refund was
$101-highest yet delivered on
the Jackson county "missing
persons" list.
One rather confusing letter
was from Vancouver, Wash.,
Irf which a man reported that
his address had been erron
eously listed as Ashland in
stead of Medford and that he
an his wife now lived in Port
land. The Tax Commission em
phasized that claimants were
requested to send in ttieic so
cial security nxmWers sd
some means f ldenficaio.
