Internal Revenue
Service to Use
New Data System
District Director of Internal
Revenue, A. C. Ross, requests co
operation of all persons who pre
pare Federal tax returns, parti
cularly professional practitioners,
in filling out tax returns as near
ly as possible in accordance with
the official forms.
Adherence to official forms
will become increasingly impor
tant as the Internal Revenue
Service moves into its Automa
tic Data Processing program.
This program will be inaugurated
throughout the Atlanta Region
at the beginning of 1962, and
will be gradually extended to
'other regions.
The ADP System will require
'a marked increase in the use of
preaddressed forms. Preaddress
ed blank return forms have been
used for many years in connection
with employment and excise
। taxes. In the case of income taxes,
preaddressed forms have usually
been prepared only for Form
1040 A—A — the small punch-card
form which is available to salary
and wage earners with less than
SIO,OOO income. In order to mini
mize errors in identification, it is
planned that eventually nearly
all income tax forms, as well as
forms for other types of tax, will
be preaddressed. Studies are now
being made to determine the
advisability of preprinting the
names, addresses, and identifica
tion numbers on the actual blank
forms or in other kinds of duco
ments (which would then be at
tached to the return).
Under the new system, it will
be .more important than ever that
each tax payer’s account and do
cuments be accurately identified.
Since many names are alike or
may be mispelled on documents
from other sources, identification
numbers will be used as perman
ent tax account numbers so that
the combination of names and
numbers will minimize errors.
Since a very high percentage
of taxpayers already have Social
Security numbers, it has been de
cided to use the same numbers
for tax purposes in order to save
these taxpayers the trouble of
applying for new numbers.
Similarly, nearly every busi
ness has an “employer identifi
cation number which it uses on
social security and income tax
withholding returns, and the
same numbers will be used for
identifying business returns
(such as annual corporation in
come tax, and quarterly excise
and employment tax returns).
To a great extent, taxpayers
will merely continue to put on
their returns the same numbers

they have been furnishing for
years. In fact, over 97 percent of
the persons who file their income
tax returns on Form 1040A (the
small punchcard form) already
are using their Social Security
numbers.
The first documents to be giv
en a special check for Social Se
curity numbers will be the De
clarations of Estimated Tax for
1962. These are due by April 15,
1962, but are required of only
those taxpayers who will owe
S4O or more tax over and above
any tax withheld from salaries.

received, a special letter and ap-
