Levy relief for small income taxpayers eyed by administration
The administration proposes tax relief for earned income up to 25000 dollars, sparing many small earners from heavy burdens. Earned income would be treated more leniently than investment income, with a fixed percentage deduction from tax to be set later. Current exemptions and 4 percent base tax would remain, but most relief targets taxpayers with incomes up to 10000 dollars, aiming to ease burden on white collar workers and wage earners in the largest groups.
