27 Useful Links
28 Review Form W-4 Line by Line 28 New Forms must always be current year First name, middle initial and last name always must appear on the form Address must be on the form
29 29 Line by Line Goes without saying must have this one! Just mention to employee Must designate marital status
30 Line by Line 30 Must have the number of allowances May have additional dollar amount or not up to employee no need to put 0.00 just leave blank
31 Line by Line 31 Must have the number of allowances Dollar amount only and it can not stand alone. Must be with allowances and martial status No Percentages
32 Line by Line 32 Employee claims exempt here Employee signs here Dates goes here
33 Line by Line 33 If sending to IRS fill these boxes in
34 Effective Dates for Forms 34 All new employees need to complete form No form? Use single and zero until received All forms except exempt forms remain in effect until a new form is received Exempt forms expire of each year Have until 2-15 to submit new form Use single zero if new form not received Up to 30 days to input new forms
35 Practical Point 35 Employers should not accept any withholding or estimated tax payments from employees in addition or instead of the withholding based on their Form W-4
36 What Makes a Form Invalid 36 Any unauthorized change or addition makes a form invalid Includes taking out any language Employee indicating either verbally or in writing that the form is false An incomplete form
37 How To Handle an Invalid Form 37 Do not use the invalid form to determine withholding Inform the employee the form is invalid Request new form from employee Use a previously submitted form to determine withholding No previous form? Use single/zero
38 Questionable Forms 38 Employers are not the Form W-4 Police (on the federal level anyway) and are not responsible for verifying the number of allowances claimed by the employee. As long as it is a valid form, the employer accepts it.
39 Processing the Forms in Payroll 39 Each form should be reviewed to ensure validity before processing Filled out completely and correctly Signed and dated Invalid or incomplete forms should never be processed Return to employee Template letters are an easy method to use
40 Sample Memo for Missing Information on 40 the Form W-4 From: The payroll department To: Insert employee s name here Re: Incomplete Form W-4 Dear: Insert employee s name here. The payroll department has received your Form W-4, dated (insert date of form here). However, we are unable to complete the processing of the form due to missing information. Please provide the required information where we have highlighted the form in yellow. When you have finished providing the missing information, please return the form to the payroll office. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
41 Sample Memo Invalid Form W4 41 From: The payroll department To: Insert employee s name Re: Invalid Form W-4 submitted to payroll Dear: Insert employee s name here It is necessary for the payroll department to return your Form W-4, dated (insert date of form here). We are unable to process the form. IRS regulations do no allow us to accept and/or process any Form W-4 that claims a fixed dollar amount only or a percentage. According to the IRS: The amount of income tax withholding must be based on marital status and number of allowances only. You may specify any additional dollar amount as well. If you still wish to change your withholding please complete a new Form W-4 and submit it to payroll at your earliest convenience.
42 Substitute Employee Forms 42 You cannot accept substitute Forms W-4 developed by employees as of October 10, 2007 If one submitted after that date it is considered invalid or the same has having failed to file the form You can continue to honor any valid employeedeveloped Forms W-4 accepted before October 11, 2007
43 43 Submitting Forms W-4 to the IRS As of April, 2005, no longer required as a routine function by IRS When requested by the IRS, you must make original Forms W-4 available for inspection by an IRS employee You may also be directed to send certain Forms W- 4 to the IRS. Send the requested copy or copies of Form W-4 to the IRS at the address provided and in the manner directed by the notice.
44 IRS Review of Forms 44 After submitting a copy of a requested Form W-4 to the IRS, continue to withhold federal income tax based on that Form W-4 The IRS also uses information reported on Form W-2 to identify employees with withholding compliance problems
45 IRS Review of Forms 45 In some cases, if a serious underwithholding problem is found to exist for a particular employee, the IRS may issue a letter to the employer specifying the maximum number of withholding allowances and marital status permitted for a specific employee Commonly referred to as a "lockin letter
46 46
47 Lock-In Letters 47 You must furnish this notice to the employee within 10 business days of receipt if the employee is employed by you as of the date of the notice Begin withholding based on the notice on the date specified in the notice. Usually 60 days from the date of the letter
48 48
49 49 Use Lock-In Letters for Terminated Employees If You are paying wages for the employee's prior services and the wages are subject to income tax withholding on or after the date specified in the notice. You reasonably expect the employee to resume services within 12 months of the date of the notice. The employee is on a leave of absence that does not exceed 12 months or the employee has a right to reemployment after the leave of absence.
50 Modified Lock-In Letters 50 The IRS may issue a subsequent notice (modification notice) that modifies the original notice The modification notice may change the marital status and/or the number of withholding allowances permitted. You must withhold federal income tax based on effective date specified in the modification notice.
51 51
52 52
53 Accepting New Forms from the Employee 53 If the employee with an active lock-in letter provides you with a new Form W-4 claiming complete exemption from withholding or claims a marital status, a number of withholding allowances, and any additional withholding that results in less withholding than would result under the IRS notice or modification notice, disregard the new Form W-4
54 Submitting to the State 54 State may still require a Form W-4 to be submitted For example Connecticut requires the form to be submitted if the employee claims three times the maximum personal exemption amount available to an employee. So the employer should multiply the maximum personal exemption amount for the taxable year by a factor of three to determine if the Form CT-W4 of an employee must be sent to DRS.
55 Submitting to the State 55 Example: North Carolina
56 Submitting Form W-4 to State WA MT ND ME OR ID SD MN WI NY VT NH MA CA NV UT WY CO NE KS IA MO IL MI OH IN KY WV VA PA DE MD NJ RI CT AZ NM OK AR TN SC NC MS AL GA TX LA FL AK State requires form to be submitted to state under certain conditions State does not require form to be submitted No state income tax HI 56 No state form State has no form but requires it to be submitted
57 Retaining Form W-4 57 Current form until replaced Expired or replaced forms minimum four years plus current tax year
58 Electronic Forms 58 May establish system that allows employees to submit their initial form or change existing form electronically Paper form must be available as well Paper form can be required for some employees if business reason justifies Must be able to provide questionable forms to IRS electronically
59 Tech Specs for Electronic Forms 59 Electronic version must contain exact same info as the paper version-no exceptions Must be PIN or verified system Lock-in letter compliance must be available Perjury statement must be there Employees must understand that it is signed under penalty of perjury just like the paper form
60 Tech Spec Continued 60 Electronic signature required Must be able to print hard copy All other regulations apply the same as paper form Practical Point: Good to have a system that requires employee to acknowledge perjury statement in order to submit as a separate step
61 States and Electronic Submission 61 With the following exceptions the majority of states either permit electronic submission or have no provision to permit or prevent electronic submission Alabama: says the form must be signed Georgia: Department of Revenue letter dated June 26, 2013 states NO but no provisions in the code
62 States and Electronic Submission 62 Massachusetts: Letter from Maryland Revenue Administration Division dated August 8, 2013 says no but no provisions in code Pennsylvania no
63 Form W-4 Nonresident Aliens 63 Cannot claim exempt Request only single regardless of marital status Claim only one allowance If from Canada, Mexico or Korea may claim more than one allowance Write nonresident alien or NRA above dotted line on line 6 of form Electronic version must provide this field
64 Form W-4 Nonresident Aliens 64 May request additional withholding at their option Form 8233, Exemption from Withholding on Compensation for Independent (and Certain Dependent) Personal Services of a Nonresident Alien Individual: If claiming a tax treaty exemption from withholding employee must submit Form 8233 instead of Form W-4
65 65
66 Add Nonresident Alien or NRA 66 Put nonresident alien or NRA here
