FARM LAND LORDS - Farm
landlords regularly taking part in
managing or working the farms
they rent are reminded they can
use the rent to qualify for Social
Security benefits.
But to do so landlords must file
tax form 1040 F before February
Is, warns Willard T. McAllister,
extension farm management spec-
ialist at the University of Delaware.
If a landlord supplies some farm
equipment, livestock, or pays part
of the production expenses he pays
self employment tax, qualifying
for Social Security. But a landlord
doesn't-have to do all these things,
McAllister says.
All that is necessary is that the
landlord materially participates
with the tenant in managing the
farm, even though the landlord
does no physical work there.
