Housewives Told
Os Social Security
Requirements
“The end of the calendar quar-|
ter is now approaching and many
housewives are wondering wheth-)
er they should report their do
mestic workers for the period
which includes April, May, and
June,” said J. W. Overstreet, Jr.,
| manager of the Macon Office of
i the Social Security Administra
| tion.
“Although the information was
published at the end of the first
quarter this year, the law is
still new to many people and we
are having a number of inquiries
every day,’,’ Mr. Overstreet add
ed.
“If you have had a household
worker during the quarter who
has been paid as much as SSO and
has worked at least part of 24
days for the same employer, that
person should be reported on the
form issued by the Collector of
Internal Revenue for that pur
pose. The form calls for the
name, account number, and am
ount of wages paid to the em
ployee. The report for the period
which ends June 30 must be filed
with the Collector before the end
of July.”
Mr. Overstreet reminded em
ployers that the tax blanks are
not obtained from the social se
curity field office, but from the
Collector of Internal Revenue in
Atlanta, since taxes are collected
by the Treasury Department;
however, the manager empha
sized the fact that social security
account numbers are issued by
the Social Security Administra
tion and all employee applica
tions should be sent to his office.
