To fill out a W-4 form, an employee should follow these steps:
1. Personal Information: Enter your name, address, Social Security Number (SSN), and filing status (single, married, etc.) in the appropriate sections at the top of the form.
2. Multiple Jobs or Spouse Works: If you have more than one job or if your spouse also works, complete the worksheet found on the form to determine the correct withholding.
3. Claim Dependents: If you have dependents, indicate the number and enter the applicable amount for tax credits.
4. Other Adjustments: If you want additional tax withheld or expect to claim deductions other than the standard deduction, fill in the relevant sections.
5. Signature and Date: Finally, sign and date the form to validate it.
Regarding withholding exemptions, these are indicated in Step 3 of the W-4 form, where employees can claim allowances based on their filing status and the number of dependents. Each allowance claimed reduces the amount of tax withheld from your paycheck.
Make sure to review the form for accuracy before submitting it to your employer. If you need detailed assistance, consider checking the extended services page for more support.
