BUFRIN (Canadian Press Staff Writer) OTTAWA. 8cm 11 - (or) - Income tax refunds to some 750,000 Canadians sra due for early em. sideratlon at the session of par- liament which starts next Thurs- day. Those refunds will go to people clipped from the income tflX-pfly. ing rolls by increased exemptions contained in the Federal budget last March 22. The 20th parliament was dissol- ved before the budget was passed. thus holding up the refunds. Before dissolution of parliament at the and of April the I-lousa of Qommons passed legislation pro- viding the government with 94m,- 000,000 to cover expenses until a new parliament was called. That money was supposed to last until the end of September, and the budget will have to be re- introduced and passed by that time or else the government will have to ask for urther emergency expenses. ‘The three quarters of a million Canadians who will receive re- funds are those who were earning between $700 and 81.000 a year as single persons, or between $1.500 y Tax Returns For 750,000 Await Approval When Parliament Resumes and $1.000 as married persons. Also included are those with children who feu below the tax-paying level when exemptions for depend- ents were increased. The exemptions were increased by the budget from I100 to $150 for children under i6 and from $300 to $400 for other dependents. All that was necessary. to put the new reduced scale of reduc- tions at the source into operation was an order-in-councli. But the full approval of parliament is needed before money which has reached the consolidated revenue fund can be paid back. Newfoundland, whioh became a province at March 31, is not af- fected by this taxation routine. Income taxes there used to be col- lected in a lump sum at the end of the year before confederation. Among the arrangements lead- ing imconfederation was one pro- viding that Newfoundlanders would not pay any income tax at all for the first six months of the year. At June 1 the regular Federal taxes went into effect and the is- landers, who new are paying the deductions at the source. will make out their tax forms for only the last six months of the year.
