Income tax up a million in March gains
Washington reports March 15 income tax collections topped the prior year by about 1.01 million and monthly totals run 2.9 billion above last March’s pace with $13.66 million paid before a filing extension. Overall fiscal year receipts to date exceed last year’s, driven by higher rates and lower exemptions, while a delayed return filing tempers near-term projections. The treasury recorded a large subscription for five and nine month certificates, a total federal outlay shows a March spike, and a prior-year deficit narrowed as the government plans for future tax income.
