The Insurance Court reversed the Social Security Board's decision regarding a 21-year-old son living in a rented apartment near his parents' farm. The court found that despite living separately, the son worked on the farm, ate there, and was paid wages, making him a family member under the relevant statute. Consequently, the court held that the son qualified for benefits as a family member of the farm operator.
