    How can I make sure I get soc sec & med care later if my employer is tax exempted?
    I work for a tax exempted Lutheran Church School and they do not contribute to Social Security or Medicare on my behalf or deduct from my pay for Social Security & Medicare. I wanted to make sure I can be eligiable for both we I get ready to retire. What can I do to assure this happens?
