If an employee qualifies for exemption from withholding, the employee can use Form W-4 to tell the employer not to deduct any federal income tax from wages. This applies only to income tax, not to Social Security or Medicare tax.
Along with the standard deduction, personal exemptions provide that only income above a basic level is subject to tax, helping ensure that the poorest households are not subject to the income tax. They also link income tax liabilities to family size, reducing taxes for families with more dependents.
