FAQ
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 you file Form 941 and make a mistake on tax withholding, file Form 941-X, Adjusted Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return or Claim for Refund. You can either use this form to report overreporting and underreporting and pursue the adjustment process, or you can claim a refund from the IRS.
Update Tax Withholdings You can submit your federal Form W-4 (federal withholdings) and NYS Form IT-2104 (state and local withholdings). NOTE: New employees must submit paper W-4 and IT-2104 forms through their agency's Office of Human Resources or Payroll Office when initially employed by New York State.
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.
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.
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.
You can claim either 0 or 1 on your W-4. It won't create problems with the IRS, it will just determine how much you'll get back on your tax return next year. If you claim 0, you will get less back on paychecks and more back on your tax refund.
To request a refund of your withholdings for previous tax years, please contact the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 for Federal tax withholding refund and your State Revenue Office for state tax withholding refund. If we are not currently withholding State tax, you must call your State Tax office for a refund.
Individuals who have insufficient income tax withholding are subject to penalties. The IRS will be making more effective use of information contained in its records along with information reported on Form W-2 wage statements to ensure that employees have enough federal income tax withheld.
