THE CHOWAN HERALD, EBENTON. NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, JANUARY 11, IMS. January 31 Tax Form Deadline January 31 is the dead line for employers of farm workers to file their 1967 Form 943, Employer’s An nual Tax Return for Agri cultural Employees, and pay the Social Security taxes due, J. E. Wall, dis trict director of Internal Revenue for North Caro lina, announced today. There is an exception for farm employers who made timely deposits of all so cial security taxes on wages paid in 1967. They have until February 12 to file Form 943 (with Forms 350 attached) for such taxes. The tax applies to cash wages of $l5O or more paid to each employee in 1967 or cash wages, regard less of amount, if the em ployee performs agricul tural labor on 20 days or more during the year. The rate of tax for 1967 is 4.4 per cent for the em ployee plus a similar amount from the employer or a total of 8.8 per cent of the first $6,600 or taxable wages paid. A “crew leader,” a per son who furnishes and pays workers to perform agricultural labor on his own behalf or for another, is treated as an employer under the law, Mr. Wail said. Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statemen, must be furnished each employee paid S6OO or more during the year. However, em ployees paid less than S6OO for any wages reportable on Form 943 must be giv en a statement for S&cial security purposes. Although use of the Form W-2 is preferred, Form SS-14 can be used for this purpose. More detailed informa tion is available in IRS Circular A, “Agricultural Employer’s Social Security Tax Guide,” which can be obtained -without cost by writing the district direc tor of Internal Revenue, 320 South Ashe Street, Greensboro, N. C. 27401. The pride of the rich makes the labor of the poor. —Nicholas Breton.
