When are tax advances paid?

Advances for Federal and state taxes are paid the month before the Quarter due date.  The schedule of payment is explained in the Settlement Form 6R.  In your deposit advice review the Deductions area for item TAXCRY – Pensioner Tax Advance-Current Year.

Why didn’t I get paid?

Review the Settlement statement for any outstanding amount to be paid to the IDB due to advance payments already received in excess of amounts actually due. 

 If you are a new retiree, make sure that an IDB Tax Form 1R has been completed.

Why is my payment different in the 3rdQ?

After a calculation is completed the advances are adjusted according to the Settlement amounts for the prior year.

When is the settlement ready?

Settlements are usually ready and mailed to each retiree by August 20 if returns have been submitted by the established due date.

Do I have to fill the Form 7R?

Yes, this form provides crucial information for those with spouse income.  The calculation cannot be performed without it.

Where do I go to see if you received my document?

We are working together with the Retiree Association in a methodology to provide this information.

Where do I send my docs?

Tax Documents should be mailed to the Berryville address:  PO Box 920, Berryville, VA 22611

How do Taxes relate to Life insurance?

When a retiree dies, and has an outstanding Tax Settlement, the Life Insurance payment is withheld until the Settlement is performed. 

If the advances exceed the settlement, the excess advance is deducted from the Life Insurance.

How are the foreign returns handled?

Foreign returns are calculated manually and following the same criteria as a national settlement, taking into consideration the currency and different time limitations.  Advances are made according to the US schedule.
