QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
QUESTION: I am a self-em
ployed fisherman that usually
nets around $800 to $1000 a
>ear. The tax consultant that
1 went to told me that I did
not have to file an income tax
return as I am married and did
not earn over $1200 a year.
Now. one of my neighbors tells
me that if my net profit is $400
a year or more. I have to file
an income tax return. Which
one is right?
ANSWER: In this case your
neighbor is right. Any self-em
ployed fisherman who has a
net profit of $400 a year or
more is required to file a fed
eral tax return. You may not
have to pay any income tax,
but you do have to pay the so
cial security tax, if your net
profit is as much as $400 a year.
QUESTION: If I was involv
ed in an accident and both my
legs were broken, would I be
considered disabled under the
provisions of the Social Secur
ty act’
ANSWER: Generally, you
would not. because you would
recover sufficiently to return to
work.
