Income tax to be heavier under pending revenue bill
The pending revenue bill would raise taxes for individuals not on active military service. The new system introduces one exemption, rates of 12 percent for most, 6 percent for those earning 4000 or less, and quarterly payments with penalties for late or unpaid installments. The army and navy exemption continues, and excess profits tax shifts to corporations only.
