prepared with the help of the ma.
tionai and state organizations of
certified public accountants.

Common Mistakes
According to the results OF a
sampling by the Internal Revenue
made by taxpayers fall into these
four groups:

partly because of debatable ques

your income was less than $500 you
should file return If any tax was
withheld by your employer and you
wish to receive a refund. In any
case, II you had as much as $400
earnings from Unemployment you
must file return to report those
earnings for social security pur-
poses.
Non-Taxable Income
It is important to remember that
all income is not taxable. You
should not include in your return
any income which is listed in the
oftlcial instruction book as exempt.
This includes interest on state and
municipal bonds, most government
payments to veterans and their
families, life insurance proceeds
upon death, gifts and social security
benefits. The tax instructions from
the Internal Revenue Service con-
tain a list of the types OF income
which should be included and those
which should be omitted from your
return.
If You Changed Jobs
Here is a special point to watch
# you worked for more than one
employer during 1856. You may
have overpaid your social security
tax. Each employer is required to
withhold social security amounting
TO Z percent of the first $4,000 Of
your wages. If you worked for only
one employer, this would amount

Chances are you'll not get BY
very long II you're collecting
social security payments which
aren't due you.
The Social Security Admins.
tration has q number Of ways
to make sure that you don't. II
must have to run the program
efnciently.
And, it can penalize you fol
drawing payments which you're
not entitled to.
For example: Suppose YOU
collected social security checks
for every month last year. but
you shouldn't have because YOU
earnings were over the allow.
able limits. And. suppose you
don't tell the social security
people how much you earned be.
cause you don't want to pay
back the checks.
It may take a little time. bui
the social security people will
find out what you've done.
Here's one way:
Probably the money you
earned was covered by the Social
Security System and you paid
social security tax on 1t. II
you worked for someone else
your boss has to report your
cravings to the Internal Rev.
enue Service and pay tax on It
The internal revenue, in turn
must report this earnings in
formation to the social security
headquarters.
Since the Social Security Ad-
ministration automatically in.
Ivestigates the reported earnings
of every one who's receiving
payments. your earnings win be
studied.
When this investigation is I'm
ished and it's discovered that
you've collected payments which
weren't due you. you1l be mott
fed and asked for an explains
ton.
If you have no reasonable ex-
PLANTATION, chances are the over
payments will be deducted from
any future payments you may
