6211 Tax Return Not Filed or Does Not Contain Full Years Earnings - If a tax return has not been filed (e.g., employment just started or client has not filed a return), the KC5150- Self-employment worksheet is required. The applicant is required to complete the worksheet documenting all income and expenses for the 12 months prior to the month of application. Ledgers and other business records are not accepted as verification of self-employment income.
An average is determined by totaling all gross earnings in the months being counted, subtracting the total expenses, and dividing by the respective number of months. The calendar months being used and the corresponding earnings must be clearly documented in the case record.
