How to claim exempt status on a W-4. To claim an exemption, you must complete only lines 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7 and sign the form to validate it. (In Box 7, write “EXEMPT”. Writing this will guarantee that withholdings are not taken from your future paychecks.)
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.
