W-4 Annual Notification

December 1, 2009

It is once again time to review your W-4 status. If you have had any lifestyle changes during 2009, such as marriage, divorce, or the birth or adoption of a child, your filing status could be affected.

Please check to make sure your address is current and that you are claiming the appropriate number of allowances. The IRS website provides a tax withholding calculator and information. Select ""Welcome to IRS Withholding Calculator" and file a new W-4 if necessary.

Reminder: If you claimed exempt status in 2009 and wish to continue your exemption for 2010, you must submit a new form to the payroll department by Feb. 16. If a new W-4 has not been filed by Feb. 16, withholding will be at the single with zero dependent rates until a new Form W-4 is submitted.

The IRS has published the 2010 W-4. You can also download the form off the Âé¶¹Ô­´´ Human Resources or pick it up in the HR department.

Please direct any questions you may have to Human Resources, at 395-5186, 395-5188 or 395-5190.
