Dear Sir or Madam:
We are writing to you about
. Please assist us by
completing the enclosed questionnaire. We are requesting this information in order to determine
whether
work activity is/was subsidized or was an unsuccessful work
attempt under the Social Security rules. The information you provide will not be shared with other
agencies and is in no way a negative reflection on the employee, or you as the employer.
Information About Subsidy
A subsidy exists when an employer willingly pays more in wages than the value of the actual
services performed. This is usually for humanitarian reasons. A subsidy can be reflected by
giving the employee:
• extra assistance,
• full wages for lower quality or quantity than standard, or
• fewer and/or easier duties than usual for that position.
Information about Unsuccessful Work Attempt
An unsuccessful work attempt may exist if the employee had frequent absences,
performed unsatisfactorily, and worked for six months or less.
