H
Veterans who are “in the fog”
regarding the payment of Oregon
state income taxes for 1945 were
reminded that they, like civilians,
must file returns before the
April 15 deadline.
The reminder came from Hugh
E. Rosson, state veteran’s affairs
director, on advice by state, in
come tax commission officials as
to the obligations and exemptions
Oregon’s returning servicemen
have regarding their income tax
es. The veteran should keep these
points in mind, the tax experts
said:
1. He must filq a report on
his 1945 earnings.
2. He ¡3 allowed a $3000 an
nual exemption while in active
service, making it unlikely that
he will have any taxes to pay
unless his service pay exceeded,
that, or unless he had an in
come aside from his service pay.
This exemption goes back to in-
cude the year 1942, and applies
to any kind of income he had.
3. The $300 exemption is for
each year, from 1942 on, that
the man was in active service
for one day. For example, if he
was discharged on January 1,
1945, he can claim a $3,00 de
duction on his earnings for 1945.
4. The $3000 deduction is in
addition to the regular exemp
tion allowed all persons.
For
single men, an income of $800
or less for the year is tax-ex
empt: for married men, $1500
or less is tax-exempt; and for
each additional dependent, an ad
ditional $300 is tax-exempt.
5. Where a veteran was grant
ed a deferment of income tax
payments at the time of enter
ing service, the delinquent tax
must be paid within six months
of discharge in order to avoid
penalties.
6. Veterans should note par
ticularly that the optional (short
form) tax table appearing on the
Oregon income tax return does
not include any adjustment for
the $3000 special deduction.
Therefore, in order to gain the
advantage of this dedu-tirn, it
is necessary to follow the long-
form of computation.
7. He might save money by
filling a joint income tax return
with his wife. By so doing, if
his $3000 deduction was not
used up, the remainder of this
deduction can be applied to his
wife’s deductible income. What
this does, in effect, is to give his
wife a greater deduction than
she would otherwise have had.
8. Only his service pay, over
seas pav and flight pay are tax
able. The government’s share of
his dependency allotments is not
taxable. Neither is disability pay
nor pensions.
