As you know by now, we changed a lot of things last
year. We gave you a new return, a new Guirle, several new
deductions and a few new rules. And quite lioneStly, wewere
more than a little concerned about your reaction to it all.
(And very, very interested in your opinions.) •
Well, now that we've had time to really look back at it
and assess it honestly, it appears that most taxpayers did
not seem to find it too difficult. The error rate did not ac-
celerate greatly or change drastically from former years.
Generally, most taxpayers seemed to handle their new
returns fairly well.
However, Income Tax will never be the easiest or most
enjoyable thing in anyone's life. And it will alwayS present •
problems in some areas, for some people. That's expected
and understandable,
So. What We want to do now is really work on those
problem areas. And the best way to do that isto work with .
you, individually, on whatever part of Income Tax that causes
yOu difficulty.
And that's what April Aid is all about. It's a help system
and its primary objective is to ensure that whenever or
whatever you need help with, you can get it. And know how
to get it.

1 First. Your Guide is alwayt the
best answer When yOu have a problem,
