Business People Must Have
A Social Security Card
Self-employed persons should ap
ply now for their social security
account number, urged Glenn H.
Pittenger, Manager of the Ashe
ville Social Security Field Office.
Although self-employed persons are
not required to report their 1951
earnings until they file their in
come tax returns /eaHy in 1952,
Pittenger said that every self-em
ployed person who does not have a
social security account-number card
should apply for one now to be cer
tain he had the account number
when the tax report is made. Appli
cations for account numbers can
be obtained from the local post
office, or by contacting the Asheville
Social Security office.
Most owners or partners in a
trade or business who have net
earnings of $400 or more a year
are required by the new social
security law to pay in full the tax
of 2% % of their net earnings,
up to the first $3,600 earned in
the year, at the time the combined
income tax,and social security tax
form is filed. This coverage of
self-employed is not voluntaryV
Pittenger emphasized. Participa
tion is required by the law unless
net earnings from self-employment
are less than $400 a year, or if the
income is derived from the owner
ship or operation of a farm or
from certain professions excluded
by the law; such as, physicians,
lawyers;” dentists, professional en
gineers, public accountants, and
some others.
A new booklet entitled Do You
-Work For Yourself? which gives a
complete explanation of. the new
social security law applying to the
self-employed can be had at no cost
