    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/member_profile.asp?PF=114">VietVet</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 471<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> Mar&nbsp;31&nbsp;2009 at 7:15am<br /><br />wannaknow- Middletown requires all residents to file city income tax. If your friend draws a disability check like my wife does, he, like my wife, is required to file, claiming the disability payouts for the year. The city will then determine that it is not taxable income (which we already knew) and he will owe them nothing. Bottom line- the city still requires everyone to file if a resident, even though the income is not taxable. He doesn't have to keep going to jail. He just needs to fill out a city income tax form providing his yearly income. He was arrested for not filing- not because he owed them anything. He didn't need to pay them $500 bucks. He just needs to fill out a form which takes all of five minutes and submit it. It's like the old street camera fines- squeezing all the money they can from any source they can because they're too ignorant to generate revenue any other way. Is this town a great place or what!!!!!  <img src="http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />  <img src="http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/smileys/smiley21.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> ]]>

I know a guy who is homeless and lives on the street. He is mentally unstable. I try to feed him every chance I get and see that he is ok. He draws a disability check which is&nbsp;not taxable. He received a letter at his father's house asking for taxes to be filed for several years. I called the city tax division and explained the situation to them, that he probably isn't even aware of what they want and he DOES NOT OWE any taxes.&nbsp; Long story short, he was arrested, spent the week-end in jail and now has a big fine to pay for failure to file. He most likely will not pay the fine, I think it was $500.00, so, he will go back to jail when they catch up with him again. I just hope they wait til winter so he will have a warm place to sleep. Go Middletown!</P><DIV>Really, how much time and money is involved in dealing with zero tax returns.</DIV>]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/member_profile.asp?PF=114">VietVet</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 471<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> Jul&nbsp;22&nbsp;2008 at 1:17pm<br /><br />I, too, have gotten the "pay us in full" letter from the city of Middletown. I then ignore that, declare my income at the beginning of the year and pay them quarterly as they bill me. Seems to work for me and the city as they haven't indicated that they have a problem with it. Have done this method for years.As a side note: My wife, who has worked for 30 years and now is medically unable due to 4 bypasses and 2 heart attacks, must file even though her Social Security Disability income is not taxable. She declares 0 income on all tax forms (except her disability) and still has to file with this city. This is a waste of time in paperwork and to have a city employee review it.Why does this city require all people, whether you have an income or not, to file? Just clogs the system with paperwork and doesn't benefit the city at all as to revenue. <img src="http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> ]]>
