New Tax Act Lowers Exemptions for Many Filers
The 1921 revenue act raises exemptions for a married man with income up to 5000 and allows 400 per dependent under 18 or unable to self support. A head of a family with income up to 5000 also gains 500 in exemption. Normal tax rates remain 4 percent on the first 4000 above exemptions and 8 percent on the rest. Surtax rates stay mostly unchanged for 1921 and shift for 1922. Returns required for many earners with filing deadlines from January 1 to March 15, 1922 and penalties apply for late or omitted filings.
