Your 2012 income tax will be levied on your earnings from January 1 to December 31, i.e. the amount of your total earnings minus deductions from income and multiplied by the appropriate tax rate. The period for receiving filing assistance from the tax office is from Monday, February 18 to Friday, March 15, 2013. Income tax is calculated and paid by employers by way of withholding income tax from employees’ monthly pay and bonuses and then filing a year-end adjustment. Any deficits that resulted from withholding an earner’s income tax after deductions for the year will be refunded. All employed residents are required to file a tax return if any of the followings apply: 1. Your total income from employment exceeded JPY20,000,000 in 2012. 2. You received salaries, etc. from one source only, and your total amount of various types of income (excluding employment and retirement income) exceeded JPY200,000. 3. You received employment income from two or more sources, and the total amount of earnings from employment, etc. not subject to the year-end adjustment or withholding tax and various types of income (excluding employment income and retirement income) exceeded JPY200,000. Tax Refunds Available by Filing Even when a person is not legally required to file a final return, if a person has overpaid as a result of taxes withheld at the source or through the prepayment of estimated taxes, a tax refund can be claimed by filing a return for the sake of a refund (refund returns). For instance, if you have bought a home by mortgage or paid a large amount of money for medical expenses, you are advised to see if you are qualified for refund return.

In Gunma, more than 5,000 people die annually because of cancer. However, thanks to advanced medical technologies, there is an increasing number of cancer cases that can be treated by early detection. Therefore, checkups for cancer are very important. Did you know? Most municipal governments conduct annual medical checkups for their residents. Usually, these municipal governments provide coupons for cancer checkups. Those who wish to get a cancer screening may be charged a small fee of 500 yen ~ 1,500 yen. Cancer screenings are effective! Cancer can develop without showing symptoms, and it can be life-threatening for all age groups. It is very effective to make a habit of getting regular checkups for cancer for early detection. Early diagnosis may lead to higher rates of successful treatment. We hope you will take advantage of cancer screenings available in your community. *The municipality where you are registered as a resident will send you a medical consultation form for cancer screening. Statistically, one out of every 16 women has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Also, there is a growing number of young women who have recently been diagnosed with cervical cancer. Getting vaccinated for cervical cancer is very effective among young girls and many municipalities provide vaccination for cervical cancer for girls between the ages of 13 (the 1st grade of junior high school) and 16 (the 1st grade of high school) as part of their public grant programs. Please inquire at your municipal office about their grant programs that cover the cost of vaccination for cervical cancer. For more information, please contact your municipality.

A roadside station is a rest stop facility located at a roadside that is run by the local government or its equivalent. A roadside station has two main functions. One is to offer travelers on the road a place to rest (with a parking lot, restroom, and telephone), and the other is to provide them with local information as well as to link them with the local community where it is located. There are certain facility and service requirements a roadside station must offer as a rest stop. The parking lot must be free, have enough space for a large number of vehicles, and must be available 24/7. Restrooms must include those for physically-handicapped people and must be available 24/7. Telephones also must be available 24/7. In principle, it should have someone on duty who answers questions/gives local information. As facilities focusing on its locality, roadside stations offer a variety of services centering on linking the local area and travelers, including events related to the local culture and history. Each roadside station has its own unique characteristics. Many have restaurants and sell special products. Some have a park and even a museum. As of April 2012, there are 26 roadside stations in Gunma. The facilities are built to be friendly to children, senior citizens, and physically-handicapped people and are conveniently-located for travellers on the road. Different roadside stations have different features, so why not visit one or two from the list below?
