FAQ
IRS guidance states an employee has the right to make changes to their Form W-4 as often as they would like, and you, as the employer, need to make those changes.
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.
You may reduce the amount of tax withheld from your wages by claiming one additional withholding allowance for each $1,000, or fraction of $1,000, by which you expect your estimated deductions for the year to exceed your allowable standard deduction.
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.
Once a lock-in rate is effective, an employer cannot decrease withholding unless approved by the IRS.
Q. What can I do if my employer makes an illegal deduction from my paycheck? A. You can either file a wage claim with the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (the Labor Commissioner's Office), or file a lawsuit in court against your employer to recover the lost wages.
If you (and your spouse) have a total of only two jobs, you may instead check the box in option (c). The box must also be checked on the Form W-4 for the other job. If the box is checked, the standard deduction and tax brackets will be cut in half for each job to calculate withholding.
If you (or you and your spouse) have a total of two jobs and make roughly the same amount at both, you can instead opt to check box 2(c) to indicate this. The catch: You'll need to do this on both W-4s.
You should generally claim 0 for the lower-paying one. The idea is the lower paying one has less of an impact on your tax liability. The W-4 form sort of says this - working 2 jobs is similar to two married people each working one job, and the spouse who earns the least puts down 0.
