By CRAIG WILSON
Students fortunate enough to
earn more than $5,000 during 1947
and optimists who think they can
dig up deductions that will total
more than 10 per cent of their
total incomes really have the tax-
blues.
They must file Long Form
(1040), pages 1, 2 and 3 in full.
The job is so difficult that Rev-
enue Officers advise students to
steer clear if possible. The $5,000
citizens are required to file the
long form, but others need not do
so.
Short Form
The short form allows the tax-
payer to take 10 per cent of his
salary automatically and the only
purpose of the long form is to give
credit to students that can add
up deductions substantially over
10 per cent of their salaries.
The first step in fortifying your-
self for the attack on the long
form is to get a copy of: "1947 In-
structions for Form 1040, U.S. In-
dividual Income Tax Return," a
handy four-page, small print, out-
line of what to do, when and why.
Copies may be secured from the
Washtenaw County Office of In-
ternal Revenue, 207 First Nation-
al Bank Building, Main St.
Now for your deductions:
A. Contributions to charitable
iMstitutions for public purposes,
in form 0 money-cannot exceed
15 per cent of iii'ome.
1. ntereat paid On personal
ebts, but not business debts.
C. Deduct state. income, person-
al property. real etate taxes but
not Federal income taxes, social
security and the like.
D. Subtract losses from fire
storm, shipwreck, casualties and
theft and describe nature of loss.
Example: "I wuz robbed!"
E. M\Iedical and Dental expenses
for self and dependents are legiti-
mate if they are more than 5 per
cent, of, yourags
F. Alinbny. gambling losses
'over gains). union dues and $500
for blindness are amo-1g the items
listed under "Miscellaneous.'
Miain Categories
This list is not complete but
includes all the main categories
under deductions. Students can
calculate whether they will be able
to deduct and decide whether the
Long Form is worth the added ef-
fort. However, remember that
certain restrictions on these cate-
gories are listed on the instruc-
tion sheet and some items you
plan to use may be taboo.
NEXT: A quiz section of ques-
tions and answers for still-per-
plexed students.
