                                        - 8 -                                         
                    personally by such individual; except that an                     
                    individual shall not be included in the term “employee”           
                    under the provisions of this paragraph if such                    
                    individual has a substantial investment in facilities             
                    used in connection with the performance of such                   
                    services (other than in facilities for transportation),           
                    or if the services are in the nature of a single                  
                    transaction not part of a continuing relationship with            
                    the person for whom the services are performed; * * *             
               A taxpayer cannot be a “statutory employee” under section              
          3121(d)(3)(C) if he or she is a common law employee under section           
          3121(d)(2) or an officer of a corporation under section                     
          3121(d)(1).  Therefore, the initial question is whether                     
          petitioner was a common law employee or independent contractor,             
          and then, if he is an independent contractor, whether he                    
          qualifies as a home worker.
