It is possible, however, for farmers to become eligible in 1956 if they have earned as much as $400 from farming in each of the calendar years 1955 and 1956. But along with this goes responsibility to report earnings from farm ing and to pay the 3 percent social security tax not later than April 15, 1956. The so cial security administration has suggested payments to be made as early as possible Becker believes most farm ers will normally establish their eligibility next January when they report total earn ings for 1956. Where con ditions warrant, retroactive insurance benefit payments will be made from the time the person became eligible. The form for making a re port and remitting the requir ed tax for social security in surance (Schedule SE) comes with the federal income tax return, Form 1040. If your net earnings from farming were as much as $400 in 1955, you are obliged to fill out and file this return and pay the social security tax, according to Becker, even if you do not owe any federal income tax for 1955. Older farmers- those 65 of ov er-ca n retire after March 1956 and start getting month ly old-age insurance pay ments if they have met the earnings requirements and palid their tax. Other farmers regardless of age, will acquire family protection in the form of monthly payments to sur viving dependents in the ev ent of their death provided they meet the same require ments. In dither case, the payment o f the social security tax must accompany the income tax declaration or return, Becker emphasizes. This -e- sponsibility is required by law. Further information on so cial security taxes may be obtained from internal reven ue service offices. Informa tion about benefits may be obtained from social security district offices says Becker.
