How Do I Get an Income Tax Booklet?

Because so many people now file electronically, the Tax Commission is no longer producing or mailing paper versions of the TC-40 Individual Income Tax booklet or forms. If you need an instruction booklet, please download it here. The various income tax forms and schedules are available on our forms page.
