Subject: Re: [RESADM-L] Social security taxes
Our institution does not deduct Social Security taxes if the student is
enrolled at least half time. This includes students paid from grant funds.
I haven't looked for the IRS ruling, but I did save the page published in
the
1/19/98 Chronicle of HIgher Education that says:
"Students who are employed by their colleges do not have to pay Social
Security taxes if they are enrolled at least half time, the Internal Revenue
Service ruled Friday. The decision, which reverses the I.R.S.'s earlier
stance, could save millions of dollars at colleges that had begun
withholding
the tax from the wages of part-time students."
