You are correct, there are 15 states that do not pay social
security and 35 that pay social security. Illinois is one of
the states that does not pay SS.

Never the less, my school district along with others in
Illinois (not all districts) required me to pay SS on some of
my earnings and would not allow me pay SS on other earnings,
all from the same job description and same school district.

Illinois is the only state that required teachers to use their
TRS wages to acquire SS benefits that would be subjected to WEP
penalties because the teacher was a state employee.
