Employers Urged to Obtain Social Security Numbers
Employers must obtain Social Security account numbers for every employee who worked in July August and September to include in quarterly payroll tax returns for 1944. The law requires reporting the name account number and wages of each employee. A wage record for each covered worker is kept.
How Social Security Wages Are Tracked and Taxed
A wage record is created for each worker by the Social Security Board to determine future benefits. The ledger shows the worker’s name and board assigned number, identical to the Social Security card. Employers deduct 1 percent payroll tax plus another 1 percent from themselves, sending quarterly totals to the Internal Revenue Collector, with returns audited by the IRS before crediting wages to the proper accounts.
