Havo Important
Decision To Make
"Many local clergymen
have an important decision to
make by April 15," Robert C.
Thorn**, social security dis
trict manager in Winston-Sa
lem, said today.
The 1965 amendments to
the social security law gave
clergymen who had missed
out on previous opportunities
to sign up for social security
coverage another chance to
elect this protection. Now this
latest "open season" provided
by law is about to run out,
he said.
Mr. Thomas explained that
clergymen are the only occu
pational group who must de
cide on their own whether
they want their earnings to
be subject to social security
in order to get protection for
themselves and their families
against the risks of death,
disability, and low incomes
and illness in the later years.
A clergymen takes the first
step in obtaining social se
curity protection by signing
form 2031, available at all so
cial security and Internal
Revenue Service offices. The
full name of the form is,
"Waiver Certificates to Elect
Social Security Coverage for
Use by Ministers, Certain
Members of Religious Ord
ers. and Christian Science
Practitioners." He then pays
the social security taxes, at
the rate set for the self
employed, on his earnings
from the ministry.
His religious organization,
church, or synagogue is not
committed to payments by
this decision on his part. He
will continue to make these
payments as long as his earn
ings, after expenses, are S4OO
or more in a year.
"I urge clergymen who
have any doubts about their
present coverage or questions
about coverage for past or
for future years to get in
touch with their social secu
rity office without delay. The
time is short And much may
be at stake for clergymen
and their dependents," the
district manager said.
"About the only clergy
men not affected by this elec
tive provision in the law are
those who have tajjg. vows
of poverty, or those who haw»
earning* of or more
