Baby Sitter
Wages Must
be Reported

Many persons do not know
earnings of baby sitters in pri-
vate homes must be reported and
social security taxes be paid if
their earnings from one employer
totals $50 cash paid in any cal
endar quarter, Harry Holland,
social security district manager
here said.
Babysitters or other workers
in a private home (such as maids,
cooks, gardeners, and etc. who
work for the same employer
enough to earn at lea st 81 week
have the same protection under
the law as workers in commerce
and industry. An employee is
never too young or too old to
be covered under social security,
Holland said.
Every employer who has
household help that meets this
requirement should:
/. Make a record of the en-
ployee' S social security number.
2. Deduct social security taxes
from the employee earnings
each week or payday.
8. File the quarterly report
with Internal Revenue Service
including both the employee S and
employer S share of the tax.
Domestic employees or en-
ployers who wish additional in
formation about social security
protection or filing of the quar-
terly reports should contact the
social security office at 1900
N. Central Ave., or the nearest
repre- sentative of Internal
Revenue Service.
