FAQ
You can report alleged tax law violations to the IRS by filling out Form 3949-A online.
First, I recommend reaching out to your employer's human resources or payroll department immediately. Inform them about the error in your W-4 form and the subsequent over-withholding of federal taxes. They should be able to assist you in rectifying the situation.
At any time, contact us here at eFile or call the IRS support line at 1-800-829-1040 and inform them of the situation. Or, take advantage of low-income tax clinics if this applies to you. If you think you are a victim of identity theft, you can request a copy of a fraudulent return via Form 4506-F.
Contact Your Employer's Payroll Department: Reach out to your HR or payroll department to explain the situation. They may be able to correct the withholding on their end and issue a refund for the incorrectly withheld taxes.
If the amount under/over withheld is deemed too excessive, the IRS can send a lock-in letter notifying the employer how to adjust withholding regardless of the employee's W4 requests. If a W-4 error is caught before filing, individuals can correct this relatively easily by refiling a W-4 with their employer.

NOTE: if you claim EXEMPT you must complete a new W-4 annually in February.
