The long recession and high unemployment rate have triggered temporary (but indefinite) offsets in these states.

Effective January 1, 2008, employers are prohibited from including an employee's Social Security number in its entirety on wage statements. California Labor Code § 226 requires that private employers furnish each employee with an accurate, written, itemized wage statement containing nine particular items. Formerly, one of these items was the employee's Social Security number. Now employers must still print identification numbers on their wage statements, but are permitted to use only the last four digits of the employee's Social Security number or an employee identification number other than a Social Security number. This change applies to both paper and electronic wage statements. The law applies only to the wage statement accompanying a paycheck, but it is recommended that full Social Security numbers be removed from paychecks as well.

You do not have to be a US citizen to obtain credit. You simply need to find a lender willing to put you in debt! You can begin by establishing a relationship with a local bank. Speak with banker, or loan officer and tell them your goals. You want to express the desire to purchase a car and a house. This represents potential income to the bank. They will give you specific steps to take which can help you get there. You will need to establish at least 3 open credit accounts. Your local bank can extend a secured credit card and a personal loan secured by a Certificate of Deposit. These types of accounts require you to deposit money, which the bank will hold. Because these types of accounts are less risky for the bank, they are more likely to grant them to a credit beginner. This will get you started. Ask your banker what they recommend for a timetable. Follow their suggestions, and at the appropriate point, approach your banker again for another secured credit card, or possibly automobile financing. Following these steps will provide you with an excellent start to building a good credit history. In as little as 18 mos, you can be on your way to borrowing up to your eyeballs like the rest of America! Ain't capitalism grand?

In 1981 the National Commission on Social Security Reform (sometimes referred to as the Greenspan Commission after its Chairman) was appointed by Congress and President Reagan to work on the financing crisis in Social Security. The result of their study included several amendments that were passed by Congress, signed by President Reagan and made into law in 1983. The specific rule applying to the taxation of Social Security benefits for the first time is copied below:

If the taxpayer's combined income (total of adjusted gross income, interest on tax-exempt bonds, and 50% of Social Security benefits and Tier I Railroad Retirement Benefits) exceeds a threshold amount ($25,000 for an individual, $32,000 for a married couple filing a joint return, and zero for a married person filing separately), the amount of benefits subject to income tax is the lesser of 50% of benefits or 50% of the excess of the taxpayer's combined income over the threshold amount. The additional income tax revenues resulting from this provision are transferred to the trust funds from which the corresponding benefits were paid. Effective for taxable years beginning after 1983.
