WAIT!

YOU MAY QUALIFY FOR FREE ONLINE TAX FILING!

More than 2.5 million Indiana taxpayers filed electronically in 2013. Consider the benefits of filing electronically:

• Faster Refund. Electronic filing reduces errors and expedites refund time – average 10 to 14 days

(compared with 6 to 12 weeks for a paper return).

• Fewer Errors. Up to 20 percent of paper-filed returns have errors, which can result in delays and possible pen-

alty and/or interest for the taxpayer. Returns filed electronically, however, are 98 percent accurate.

• Costs Less. Not only does it cost you less, but it saves taxpayer money. It costs the state more than $2.3 million

operationally to process more than 1 million paper returns. It costs the state only about $150,000 operation-

ally to process more than 1.8 million electronic returns.

• Fewer Complications. You won’t have to complete the many complicated forms in this booklet. Instead, you go

online, answer some easy questions, and before you know it your taxes are complete.

You may be eligible to file your taxes online for FREE with INfreefile. Go to

to see if you qualify

About the Cover: This year, Indiana’s tax booklets commemorate veterans with photographs of Indiana war and

veterans memorials. This cover features the Indiana War Memorial located in Indianapolis. The memorial, completed

in 1965, pays homage to Hoosiers who participated in WWI and Hoosiers killed or missing in World War II, the Korean

War, and the Vietnam War. A military museum in the basement allows visitors to follow the history of Indiana soldiers.
