The W-4 allowances you claim determine the federal and state taxes that are withheld from your gross pay each pay period.<\/p>\n
All new employees are required to complete a form W-4. If one is not submitted, the IRS requires taxes to be withheld at the rate of “Single” marital status with no other adjustments until a form W-4 is completed.<\/p>\n
IRS links are included below to assist in choosing the best withholding options for your specific needs. Payroll cannot offer advice on what options an employee should choose. All employees are responsible for their individual withholdings.<\/p>\n
