EVACUEES from New Guinea and Papua, who are resident in Austra lia. who are drawing more than £3 per week from an Australian source, and who, in the year ended June 30. received £156 or more as income, between their arrival in Australia and June 30, should lodge an income taxation return before July 31, in the usual way. If they are now in receipt of an income of more than £3 per week, but did not receive more than £156 as income between their arrival in Australia and June 30 they should at once apply to the Income Tax Department, in writing, for a taxation exemption certificate. When they get this, their present income will not be subject to taxation deductions between now and June 30, 1943.
