Dividend withholding proposal for personal income tax
The article proposes a dividend withholding system where corporations withhold tax in advance on behalf of stockholders, similar to payroll tax. The system would require no itemized dividend payments, with refunds if overwithheld and balances due if underwithheld, plus hardship exceptions. Britain already taxes at source with three rates, and most individuals avoid double taxation on dividends.

House Ways and Means plans a 10 percent withholding on dividends to curb evasion. The move targets tax loopholes and could raise at least 150 million yearly. In 1947 dividends reported totalled 65 billion while individuals listed 4.8 billion in receipts. Some funds went to corporations, tax exempt groups, or low-income filers.
