You do not pay into Social Security when the employer does not tax your wages for Social Security taxes.

Even if the employer classifies us as Self-Employed? I have entered all my information into TurboTax and in years past they had different questions for Schedule SE and this year it is very different. TT is saying I do not need to worry about Schedule SE even though my W-2 shows I had 0 SS and Medicare tax witheld.

Then you should be using the Self-Employed section of the program. Net self-employment income pays SE taxes of 15.3% of the net.

On your W2 is box 13 checked for Statutory employee checked? I think that makes you fill out schedule C for self employment. Was it checked in the past but not this year?
