social You, Your Child ™ And The School

1. Q— My wife hires a cleaning lady to come in each Friday afternoon to “do” our apartment. She is given her lunch at noon and $3.50 cash wages every day she works. Is my wife required to report her wages for social security and if so, would the value of the meals be included? A— If a household worker is paid cash wage§ of at least SSO in a calendar quarter, reports are required. In. your case, cash wages of $3.50 per week for a 13 - week calendar quarter would produce cash wages of less than SSO, eliminating the need for reporting her wages. Only cash wages count. Items such as room and board, bus tokens, etc. would not be considered in determining whether she had been paid SSO. However, if she is given cash for transportation, this must be included in total paid. 2. Q — I have been working in my sister’s home about one,, month doing her housework and taking care of her children. She is unable to do the work herself because of recent surgery. I am being paid $25 a week, which is all my sister can afford. iWll she be required to report my pay for social security? Her husband says that she will, but I thouglft that work for relatives did hot count for social security. A— Your sister’s husband is correct since the family employment exclusion does not apply in your situation. Domestic work for a son, daughter, or spouse, and work for a parent by a child under age 21 does not count for social security credits, but this is the extent of the exclusion. 3. Q — I am going to return to work and will have to hire a housekeeper to look after my children. This Will be the first time I have had to hire domestic help. How will I report the wages and pay the social security tax? A— A pamphlet, “Social Security and Your Household Employee,” can be obtained from your nearest internal revenue office or social security office. The ■which you should complete and send to the district director of Internal Revenue. Hie district director will mail you complete reporting instructions. 4. Q — I have hired a lady to help my wife with the housework and cooking at our farm home this summer. Am I rejuired to report » the wages I pay her for social security. A _ Yes. Domestic services performed for a farmer on a farm operated for profit are treated as agricultural labor and the wages paid for this work would be subject to the same rules as for your other farm workers — that

By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist The first day of school is full of tensions for many students. Nervous reactions are common. On that first morning many children will wake particularly early and will not want much of a breakfast. Some of this nervous tension can be eliminated if students and parents spend a little time in some kind of preparation. It is advisable to avoid a last minute rush which in itself causes tension. On the other hand, too much preparation also causes anxiety. What should be done? Generally, students are aware of their new teachers’ namp. They have, probably heard rumors concerning the attitudes and personalities of the teachers. It is important for parents to reassure students when they seem upset about their teachers. Parents can help their children to realize that it is the individual’s relationship with the teacher which is important and not the rumors which are is, if the worker is paid cash wages of $l5O or more in a calendar year or the employe works on at least 20 or more days glaring the year for cash wages figured on a time basis. The wages for the domestic would be reported along with your other farm workers at the end Qf. the year. 5. Q — I live in my daughter’s home and in return for board and room I help with the housework. If she paid my for my work and charged me for my keep, would that not count for social security credit? A— No, a parent working in the household of a child is excluded by law from social security coverage, without regard to any agreement or understanding between them. 6. Q — In January I filed an application for social security benefits thinking that my earnings would be less than $1,200 this year. Now I find that I am going to earn more than $1,200. What should I do? A— Since you are being paid social security benefits on your estimated earnings of less than $1,200, you should file a revised estimate as soon as possible to avoid an overpayment of benefits. At the end of the year when you have filed your annual report, it can then be determined whether ou have been underpaid or overpaid, and the 'social security administration will make the necessary adjustments. 7. Q — When I applied for r.y

heard in the halls and on the playground. This is also an excellent time to remind students that the new school year is an opportunity to begin a clean slate. An organized plan for study and play will lay the foundation for a successful and pleasant school year. Preparing for the first day involves Obtaining certain items which are necessary. Make sure that appropriate clothing is clear and accessible. The clothing should be comfortable with regard to weather conditions. Party type clothes are not proper for school. Children should be neatly dressed in clothes which allow them to participate freely m normal school activities. . Naturally, if the school prescribes a particular uniform, it should be obtained and worn the first day. Not doing so might embarrass your child. Notebooks, etc. should only be bought in advance if the school requires them. Too often children purchase two-hole loose leaf books When the school uses three hole paper and vice versa. Waiting for directions can save money and unnecessary difficulty. Necessary items for the first day are simply a pencil, pen in the upper grades, small notebook for listing assignments and other information, and an eraser. Preparation should be made to purchase other materials after school on the first day. < Births Mr. and Mrs. Robert C.

Should I file a revised estimate now or wait until the end of the year? A— You should file a revised estimate with the social security administration right away; otherwise, you might be overpaid in benefits which you would have to refund.
