Employees and payroll

Good afternoon, @leannjack.

I'm here to help with information on the new W-4 form.

 

The “total number of allowances” section is now gone. Instead of calculating the number of allowances, which translates into a certain amount of tax withheld (the more allowances, the less money is withheld), the form features questions about your income and dependents. There is also a new optional “Step 4” section on the new form for other adjustments such as deductions for mortgages.

 

Thank you for reaching out to the Community, have a great day.
