[SchoolFinance] Social Security vs MEPers

[Adam Hanson]

Hi Lisa,
I don't have anything from Drummond on this, but I believe what you heard
is correct. Once the primary job becomes Maine PERS teacher plan, you no
longer take SS out of "extra" work, even if it is not Maine PERS eligible.
So you would take neither on the subbing.
That has been my understanding for many years.
