FAQ
Change your withholding To change your tax withholding you should: Complete a new Form W-4, Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate, and submit it to your employer. Complete a new Form W-4P, Withholding Certificate for Pension or Annuity Payments, and submit it to your payer.
An employee can also use Form W-4 to tell you not to withhold any federal income tax. To qualify for this exempt status, the employee must have had no tax liability for the previous year and must expect to have no tax liability for the current year.
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.
You should inform your employees of the importance of submitting an accurate Form W-4. An employee may be subject to a $500 penalty if the employee submits, with no reasonable basis, a Form W-4 that results in less tax being withheld than is required.
What Forms W-4 do I now have to submit to the IRS? A1. Employers are no longer required to routinely submit Forms W-4 to the IRS. However, in certain circumstances, the IRS may direct you to submit copies of Forms W-4 for certain employees in order to ensure that the employees have adequate withholding.
To claim exempt, write EXEMPT under line 4c. You may claim EXEMPT from withholding if: o Last year you had a right to a full refund of All federal tax income and o This year you expect a full refund of ALL federal income tax. NOTE: if you claim EXEMPT you must complete a new W-4 annually in February.
If your objective is to engineer your paycheck withholdings so that you end up with a $0 tax bill when you file your annual return, then the accuracy of your W-4 is crucial.
In cases of negligence or disregard of the rules or regulations, the accuracy-related penalty is 20% of the portion of the underpayment of tax that happened because of negligence or disregard.
The filing of a false Form W-4 generally will be charged as an affirmative act in a § 7201 tax evasion felony prosecution rather than as a misdemeanor under § 7205.
