Letter misleads says accountant
A Kansas Department of Revenue letter to some employers is misleading, says Ottawa public accountant A C Richeson. The letter claims employers must file forms showing payments to employees by March 1 1961, but Richeson notes forms are not required for anyone paid under 600 dollars or married individuals paid under 1200 dollars.
