TAX EXEMPTION
INCOME OF WOMEN ERROR IN OFFICIAL FORM Nearly a year ago the exemption for women who are required to make a declaration of income other than salary or wages was increased from £2O to £SO, which meant that unless such income exceeds £SO they are not required to make a declaration. Mistakes are liable to be made by those who have not informed themselves on this point, as the form now in use still states the exemption at the old figure of £2O.
