The Treasury Department and the IRS are working to incorporate changes into the Form W-4, Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate, for 2020. The current 2019 version of the Form W-4 is similar to last year's 2018 version.

A Form W-4 remains in effect until the employee gives you a new one. If employees claim exemption from income tax withholding, they must give you a new Form W-4 each year.

According to the IRS, you have until the first payroll period ending on or after 30 days of receiving the form to make changes. Be sure to store the updated copy of Form W-4 in your records. When employees add or remove withholding allowances, you need to change payroll.

Withholding allowances do not expire, but an exemption from withholding does. Employees claiming exempt on W-4 must give you a new Form W-4 every year by the deadline for exemptions, February 15. To learn more about exemption from withholding, see Form W-4 and Publication 505.

The retention period for W-4 forms is a minimum of four years after the date that taxes were due or paid -- whichever date is later. This requirement applies not only to W-4 forms but to all employment tax records in an employer's possession. The four years is a minimum guideline.

Key Point: The due date for your 2018 Form 1040 is April 15, 2019, unless you live in Maine or Massachusetts, in which case your deadline is April 17, 2019. You can automatically extend your return to Oct. 15, 2019 by filing Form 4868 with the IRS on or before the applicable deadline.

The tax year you are filing for is usually the year prior to the year taxes are actually filed, which makes sense because the government needs to know what you earned between January 1 and December 31 on your tax return. For example, taxes prepared in March of 2019 would be for the tax year 2018.
