NEWTON TOWNSHIP WAGE TAX COLLECTOR

Please be advised that Newton Township residents will be receiving two forms instead of one form for reporting of their local wage taxes.  When filling out each form, only put .05% of your gross wages.  Anyone with questions may contact the Tax Collector for assistance.  Also, anyone receiving a form that does not have gross wages to report, please sign the form and return to our office with your reason for not filing so that we remove you from the list.
