A wartime tax note outlines exemptions for a paratroop hero and dependents. It details $600 standard exemptions for a wife, with extra $600 if she is blind or aged 65 on or before December 31, 1943, and $600 for a dependent with no extras. It lists close relatives eligible as dependents, including children, grandchildren, siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and in-laws, with conditions for full-year or partial-year eligibility for children born in 1948.
The text explains claiming exemptions for dependents whether born alive or unborn and notes that in 1943 even a dependent who died mid-year can qualify. It outlines not needing arithmetic with $600 exemptions on Form 1040A or 1040 short form, as tax tables handle it. For the long form, subtract exemptions from income before taxing the remainder.
