Important Forms and Files for Hiring New Employees

W-4 Withholding

Click Here A W-4 is the IRS document that you complete for your employer to determine how much should be withheld from your paycheck for federal income taxes. Accurately completing your W-4 can help you avoid overpaying your taxes throughout the year, or even owing a large balance at tax time.
