SOCIAL

COV-
ERAGE.
(a) 
IN
GENERAL.—Notwithstanding 
section
1402(e)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, any ex-
emption which has been received under section 1402(e)(1)
of such Code by a duly ordained, commissioned, or li-
censed minister of a church, a member of a religious order,
or a Christian Science practitioner, and which is effective
for the taxable year in which this Act is enacted, may be
revoked by filing an application therefor (in such form and
manner, and with such official, as may be prescribed in
regulations made under chapter 2 of such Code), if such
application is filed no later than the due date of the Fed-
eral income tax return (including any extension thereof)
for the applicant’s second taxable year beginning after De-
cember 31, 1995. Any such revocation shall be effective
(for purposes of chapter 2 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986 and title II of the Social Security Act), as speci-
fied in the application, either with respect to the appli-
cant’s first taxable year beginning after December 31,
1995, or with respect to the applicant’s second taxable
year beginning after such date, and for all succeeding tax-
able years; and the applicant for any such revocation may
not thereafter again file application for an exemption
under such section 1402(e)(1). If the application is filed
after the due date of the applicant’s Federal income tax
return for a taxable year and is effective with respect to
that taxable year, it shall include or be accompanied by
payment in full of an amount equal to the total of the
taxes that would have been imposed by section 1401 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 with respect to all of
the applicant’s income derived in that taxable year which
would have constituted net earnings from self-employment
for purposes of chapter 2 of such Code (notwithstanding
section 1402(c)(4) or (c)(5) of such Code) except for the
exemption under section 1402(e)(1) of such Code.
(b) EFFECTIVE DATE.—Subsection (a) shall apply
with respect to service performed (to the extent specified
in such subsection) in taxable years beginning after De-
cember 31, 1995, and with respect to monthly insurance
benefits payable under title II of the Social Security Act
on the basis of the wages and self-employment income of
any individual for months in or after the calendar year
in which such individual’s application for revocation (as
described in such subsection) is effective (and lump-sum
death payments payable under such title on the basis of
such wages and self-employment income in the case of
deaths occurring in or after such calendar year).
SEC. 9. PILOT STUDY OF EFFICACY OF PROVIDING INDIVID-
UALIZED INFORMATION TO RECIPIENTS OF
OLD-AGE AND SURVIVORS INSURANCE BENE-
FITS.
(a) IN GENERAL.—During a 2-year period beginning
as soon as practicable in 1996, the Commissioner of Social
Security shall conduct a pilot study of the efficacy of pro-
viding certain individualized information to recipients of
monthly insurance benefits under section 202 of the Social
Security Act, designed to promote better understanding
of their contributions and benefits under the social secu-
rity system. The study shall involve solely beneficiaries
whose entitlement to such benefits first occurred in or
after 1984 and who have remained entitled to such bene-
fits for a continuous period of not less than 5 years. The
number of such recipients involved in the study shall be
of sufficient size to generate a statistically valid sample
for purposes of the study, but shall not exceed 600,000
beneficiaries.
(b) ANNUALIZED STATEMENTS.—During the course
of the study, the Commissioner shall provide to each of
the beneficiaries involved in the study one annualized
statement, setting forth the following information:
(1) an estimate of the aggregate wages and
self-employment income earned by the individual on
whose wages and self-employment income the benefit
is based, as shown on the records of the Commis-
sioner as of the end of the last calendar year ending
prior to the beneficiary’s first month of entitlement;
(2) an estimate of the aggregate of the em-
ployee and self-employment contributions, and the
aggregate of the employer contributions (separately
identified), made with respect to the wages and self-
employment income on which the benefit is based, as
shown on the records of the Commissioner as of the
end of the calendar year preceding the beneficiary’s
first month of entitlement; and
(3) an estimate of the total amount paid as
benefits under section 202 of the Social Security Act
based on such wages and self-employment income, as
shown on the records of the Commissioner as of the
end of the last calendar year preceding the issuance
of the statement for which complete information is
available.
(b) INCLUSION WITH MATTER OTHERWISE DISTRIB-
UTED TO BENEFICIARIES.—The Commissioner shall en-
sure that reports provided pursuant to this subsection are,
to the maximum extent practicable, included with other
reports currently provided to beneficiaries on an annual
basis.
(c) REPORT TO THE CONGRESS.—The Commissioner
shall report to each House of the Congress regarding the
results of the pilot study conducted pursuant to this sec-
tion not later than 60 days after the completion of such
study.
