KNOW YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY
Jc.hn T. Groom*, representative of the Social Security
Administration, i* in Edsnlon every Thursday at the North
Carolina Employment Security Commission office in the
, Ci mens Bank Buildqg.
Does the Social Security Ad
rhinistxation have an accurate
tecord of your earnings or self
employment income? You .ope
ah. Your future social security
benefits depend on accuraie re
porting of your earnings, but
What are you doing about find
ing out?
Are you letting this responsi
bility slide by and hoping that
when you retire all of your
earnings will have been report
ed? If you. die, are you will
ing to have your family get
lhwer benefits, or no benefits
8t all, simply because your em
ployer failed to report your
earnings? If you become dis
abled and cannot work, you are
going to need these benefits.
Will you get them, All of
them?
If you don’t have good an
swers to these questions, you
had better start doing something
about it . . . today.
You cannot protect your valu
able old-age, survivors, and dis
ability insurance rights by mak
ing sure your earnings are re
ported and credited to your so
cial security account regiilarly.
Start by making certain that
each and every employer has
your full name as shown on |
your social security card and j
your correct social security j
number, your total earnings, and
also that a 3 percent reduction
for social security has been
made. This may show as an
FICA or OAIB deduction.
If you are self-employed, you
can start by showing vour full
name and correct social security
account number on the Schedule
of your Federal income tax

- return. You can make sure
5 ' your correct net earnings are
■/shown and that the tax has been
: paid.
’ The social security law re
‘ quires every employer to report
the wages paid to you for work
covered by social security. The
law also requires him to keep
' accurate records, to file the ne
' cessary reports and to pay the
social security tax of 3 percent
deducted from your wages and
a matching 3 percent out of his
• own pocket.
’ How do you find out if your
, employer is reporting your earn
ings? How do you find out if
your self-employment earnings
are being credited to your so-
I cial security account? It’s easy.
Ask your nearest social securi
ty office for a postcard form to
use in getting a statement of
' your earnings. On the postcard
show your name and address,
date of birth, and your social
security number. After signing
your name, put a stamp on it
and mail it.
You will receive a statement
from the central social security
record-keeping headquarters in
Baltimore, Maryland, showing 1
I your total earnings as reported
by your employers, or as report
ed by you if you are self-em
ployed. It will also show your
earnings in each year for the
past few years. If the state
ment does not show all your
earnings in work covered by so
cial security, take it to your lo
cal social security office. Thdy
can help you get your account
corrected.
