Social Security News

Employers in resort areas have
a few special problems in keeping
their social security records
straight-and the Delaware Coast
Section is no exception.
Many resort employers frequent
ly use the services of their own
schOOl-age youngsters during the
summer and wonder whether they
have 10 pay social security taxes
for them, even though it is all in
the family. Actually, family en-
plOyment is excepted from social
security cOverage in most instan-
ces, according to MyrOn MilbOuer,
manager of the Delaware social
security office in Wilmington.
For instance, if a business is in
diVidually Owned-that is, not in
corporated and not a partnership
services performed by the en-
plOyer's child under 21 are exclud-
ed Sons and daughters past voting
age, however, are a different mat
ter. They should be reported the
same as any other employee.
This family exception extends TO
other relationships. A parent work
ing for a child, for example, or a
spouse employed by the husband
or wife who owns the business is
also omitted from the quarterly So
cial security tax returns.
The problem of getting a record
of the name and account number
OF everyone who has to be repOrted
at the end of the tax period is i'm
pOrtant in a resort area where
young people who have never had
numbers before, and transient en-
ployees, form a large part of the
labor force. Account numbers are
issued from the Wilmington office
at 813 West Street, in Delaware
and. can be secured by mail.
