The Fairbanks office of Inter
nal Revenue will be closed effec
tive November 27, for a period
of approximately two weeks. The
staff, comprised of Marjorie P.
Young, James G. Manning and
Peter Gatz, are leaving for Jun
eau, where a school of instruc
tion for all the Alaskan deputies
is to be conducted by Deputy
Collector John Gilbert of the Se-;
attle office from November 29th
to December 7th.
at
Earlier this year Mr. Gilbert
had previously been in Washing
ton, D. C., getting instructions,
together with representaives from
64 Inernal Revenue District Of
fices in the United States. These
men and women are holding
classes in every revenue district.
Attending deputies are acquiring
the information and knowledge
that will enable them to aid the
; tax-paying public in filing in
come tax and other miscellan
eous tax returns. The Revenue
Act of 1944 contained many
amendments that will simplify
the filing of 1944 income tax re
turns and those for ensuing years.1
and the deputy collectors are be
coming equipped to pass on this
i information to every individual
taxpayer..
Under the provisions of the
l 1944 Act the last installment of
Estimated Tax for 1944 is now
due by January 15, 1945, instead
; of December 15 1944. Estimates
of income for farmers will be
due on or before January 15,
1945. However if they file their
| regular income tax return on or
before that date they need not
file the estimate.' The January 15
date applies to the last amended
return that may be filed, and also
for those individuals who have
not previously filed because they
were below the requirement but
change in marital or income
