Election Officials and Election Sample Clauses

Election Officials and Election. Workers Prior to the 1967 Social Security Amendments, there was no specific provision for the exclusion of election officials and election workers. The exclusion was possible by excluding election officials/workers as a class of part-time positions. Effective January 1, 1968, the Act was amended to allow each State to modify its agreement to exclude the services of election officials/workers whose pay in a calendar quarter was less than $50. For years 1978 through 1994, the threshold amount was $100 a calendar year. The threshold amount was $1,000 for years 1995-1999. The election worker threshold amount for calendar years 2000 and 2001 was $1,100; for the calendar years 2002 through 2005, the election worker threshold amount was $1,200; for calendar years 2006 through 2007, the election worker threshold amount was $1,300; for calendar year 2008, the threshold amount was $1,400; and for calendar years 2009 through 2012, the threshold amount was $1,500. For calendar years 2013 through 2015, the threshold amount was $1,600. Beginning January 1, 2016 and going forward, the election official/worker threshold amount increases to $1,700 a calendar year. Many States have excluded election workers paid less the threshold amount mandated by law. Therefore, Social Security and Medicare taxes do not apply until the election worker is paid the threshold amount or more. Some State agreements specify a lower threshold amount for election workers, e.g., $50 a calendar quarter or $100 a calendar year. In these States, the Social Security and Medicare tax applies when the amount specified in the State’s agreement is met. States may modify the State’s agreement to exclude the services of election workers paid less than the threshold amount mandated by law. Such modifications are effective in the calendar year the modification is mailed or delivered to SSA. If the State’s agreement does not have an election worker exclusion or the entity has a Section 218 Agreement that does not exclude election workers, Social Security and Medicare taxes apply from the first dollar paid. If the entity is not covered under a Section 218 Agreement, the rules for mandatory Social Security and Medicare apply.

  • How Are Distributions from a Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account Taxed For Federal Income Tax Purposes? Amounts distributed are generally excludable from gross income if they do not exceed the beneficiary’s “qualified higher education expenses” for the year or are rolled over to another Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account according to the requirements of Section (4). “Qualified higher education expenses” generally include the cost of tuition, fees, books, supplies, and equipment for enrollment at (i) accredited post-secondary educational institutions offering credit toward a bachelor’s degree, an associate’s degree, a graduate-level or professional degree or another recognized post-secondary credential and (ii) certain vocational schools. In addition, room and board may be covered if the beneficiary is at least a “half-time” student. This amount may be reduced or eliminated by certain scholarships, qualified state tuition programs, HOPE, Lifetime Learning tax credits, proceeds of certain savings bonds, and other amounts paid on the beneficiary’s behalf as well as by any other deductions or credits taken for the same expenses. The definition of “qualified education expenses” includes expenses more frequently and directly related to elementary and secondary school education, including the purchase of computer technology or equipment or Internet access and related services. To the extent payments during the year exceed such amounts, they are partially taxable and partially non-taxable similar to payments received from an annuity. Any taxable portion of a distribution is generally subject to a 10% penalty tax in addition to income tax unless the distribution is (i) due to the death or disability of the beneficiary, (ii) made on account of a scholarship received by the beneficiary, or (iii) is made in a year in which the beneficiary elects the HOPE or Lifetime Learning credit and waives the exclusion from income of the Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account distribution. You may be allowed to take both the HOPE or Lifetime Learning credits while simultaneously taking distributions from Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Accounts. However, you cannot claim a credit for the same educational expenses paid for through Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account distributions. To the extent a distribution is taxable, capital gains treatment does not apply to amounts distributed from the account. Similarly, the special five- and ten-year averaging rules for lump-sum distributions do not apply to distributions from a Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account. The taxable portion of any distribution is taxed as ordinary income. The IRS does not require withholding on distributions from Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Accounts.
