A Summary of Your Rights Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act
The federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) promotes the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information in the files of consumer
reporting agencies. There are many types of consumer reporting agencies, including credit bureaus and specialty agencies (such as
agencies that sell information about check writing histories, medical records, and rental history records). Here is a summary of your
major rights under the FCRA. For more information, including information about additional rights, go to
www.consumerfinance.gov/learnmore or write to: Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, 1700 G Street N.W., Washington, DC
20552.
You must be told if information in your file has been used against you. Anyone who uses a credit report or another type of
consumer report to deny your application for credit, insurance, or employment – or to take another adverse action against you – must tell
you, and must give you the name, address, and phone number of the agency that provided the information.
You have the right to know what is in your file. You may request and obtain all the information about you in the files of a consumer
reporting agency (your “file disclosure”). You will be required to provide proper identification, which may include your Social Security
number. In many cases, the disclosure will be free. You are entitled to a free file disclosure if:
• a person has taken adverse action against you because of information in your credit report;
• you are the victim of identify theft and place a fraud alert in your file;
• your file contains inaccurate information as a result of fraud;
• you are on public assistance;
• you are unemployed but expect to apply for employment within 60 days.
In addition, all consumers are entitled to one free disclosure every 12 months upon request from each nationwide credit bureau and from
nationwide specialty consumer reporting agencies. See www.consumerfinance.gov/learnmore for additional information.
You have the right to ask for a credit score. Credit scores are numerical summaries of your credit-worthiness based on information
from credit bureaus. You may request a credit score from consumer reporting agencies that create scores or distribute scores used in
residential real property loans, but you will have to pay for it. In some mortgage transactions, you will receive credit score information
for free from the mortgage lender.
You have the right to dispute incomplete or inaccurate information. If you identify information in your file that is incomplete or
inaccurate, and report it to the consumer reporting agency, the agency must investigate unless your dispute is frivolous. See
www.consumerfinance.gov/learnmore for an explanation of dispute procedures.
Consumer reporting agencies must correct or delete inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information. Inaccurate, incomplete
or unverifiable information must be removed or corrected, usually within 30 days. However, a consumer reporting agency may continue
to report information it has verified as accurate.
Consumer reporting agencies may not report outdated negative information. In most cases, a consumer reporting agency may not
report negative information that is more than seven years old, or bankruptcies that are more than 10 years old.
Access to your file is limited. A consumer reporting agency may provide information about you only to people with a valid need –
usually to consider an application with a creditor, insurer, employer, landlord, or other business. The FCRA specifies those with a valid
need for access.
You must give your consent for reports to be provided to employers. A consumer reporting agency may not give out information
about you to your employer, or a potential employer, without your written consent given to the employer. Written consent generally is
not required in the trucking industry. For more information, go to www.consumerfinance.gov/learnmore.
You may limit “prescreened” offers of credit and insurance you get based on information in your credit report. Unsolicited
“prescreened” offers for credit and insurance must include a toll-free phone number you can call if you choose to remove your name and
address from the lists these offers are based on. You may opt-out with the nationwide credit bureaus at 1-888-567-8688.
You may seek damages from violators. If a consumer reporting agency, or, in some cases, a user of consumer reports or a furnisher
of information to a consumer reporting agency violates the FCRA, you may be able to sue in state or federal court.

Identity theft victims and active duty military personnel have additional rights. For more information, visit
www.consumerfinance.gov/learnmore
States may enforce the FCRA, and many states have their own consumer reporting laws. In some cases, you may have more
rights under state law. For more information, contact your state or local consumer protection agency or your state Attorney
General. For information about your federal rights, contact:

Form CT-W4 Instructions
Employee General Instructions
Form CT-W4, Employee’s Withholding Certicate, provides your
employer with the necessary information to withhold the correct
amount of Connecticut income tax from your wages to ensure that
you will not be underwithheld or overwithheld.
You are required to pay Connecticut income tax as income is earned
or received during the year. You should complete a new Form CT-W4
at least once a year or if your tax situation changes.
If your circumstances change, such as you receive a bonus or your
ling status changes, you must furnish your employer with a new
Form CT-W4 within ten days of the change.
Gross Income
For Form CT-W4 purposes, gross income means all income from
all sources, whether received in the form of money, goods, property,
or services, not exempt from federal income tax, and includes any
additions to income from Schedule 1 of Form CT-1040, Connecticut
Resident Income Tax Return or Form CT-1040NR/PY, Connecticut
Nonresident and Part‑Year Resident Income Tax Return.
Filing Status
Generally, the ling status you expect to report on your Connecticut
income tax return is the same as the ling status you expect to report
on your federal income tax return. However, special rules apply to
married individuals who le a joint federal return but have a dierent
residency status. Nonresidents and part-year residents should see
the instructions to Form CT-1040NR/PY.
Check Your Withholding
You may be underwithheld if any of the following apply:
You have more than one job;
You qualify under Certain Married Individuals; or
You have substantial nonwage income.
If you are underwithheld, you should consider adjusting your
withholding or making estimated payments using Form CT-1040ES,
Estimated Connecticut Income Tax Payment Coupon for Individuals.
You may also select Withholding Code “D” to elect the highest level
of withholding.
If you owe $1,000 or more, after subtracting from your Connecticut
income tax the amount withheld from your income for the prior taxable
year, and any PE Tax Credit, you may be subject to interest on the
underpayment at the rate of 1% per month or fraction of a month.
To help determine if your withholding is correct, see Informational
Publication 2021(7), Is My Connecticut Withholding Correct?
Certain Married Individuals
If you are a married individual ling jointly and you and your spouse
both select Withholding Code “A,” you may have too much or too
little Connecticut income tax withheld from your pay. This is because
the phase-out of the personal exemption and credit is based on your
combined incomes. The withholding tables cannot reect your exact
withholding requirement without considering the income of your spouse.
To minimize this problem, and determine if you need to adjust your
withholding using Line 2 or Line 3, see IP 2021(7).
Nonresident Employees Working Partly Within and Partly
Outside of Connecticut
If you work partly within and partly outside of Connecticut for
the same employer, you should also complete Form CT-W4NA,
Employee’s Withholding or Exemption Certicate - Nonresident
Apportionment, and provide it to your employer. The information on
Form CT-W4NA and Form CT-W4 will help your employer determine
how much to withhold from your wages for services performed within
Connecticut. For Convenience of the Employer Test information, see
Form CT-W4NA. To obtain Form CT-W4NA, visit the Department of
Revenue Services (DRS) website at portal.ct.gov/DRS or request
the form from your employer. Any nonresident who expects to have no
Connecticut income tax liability should choose Withholding Code “E.”
Armed Forces Personnel and Veterans
If you are a Connecticut resident, your armed forces pay is subject
to Connecticut income tax withholding unless you qualify as a
nonresident for Connecticut income tax purposes. If you qualify as
a nonresident, you may request that no Connecticut income tax be
withheld from your armed forces pay by entering Withholding Code “E”
on Line 1.
Military Spouses Residency Relief Act (MSRRA)
If you are claiming an exemption from Connecticut income tax under
the MSRRA, you must provide your employer with a copy of your
military spouse’s Leave and Earnings Statement (LES) and a copy
of your military dependent ID card.
See Informational Publication 2019(5), Connecticut Income Tax
Information for Armed Forces Personnel and Veterans.
Employer Instructions
For any employee who does not complete Form CT-W4, you are required
to withhold at the highest marginal rate of 6.99% without allowance
for exemption. You are required to keep Form CT-W4 in your les for
each employee. See Informational Publication 2021(1), Connecticut
Employer’s Tax Guide, Circular CT, for complete instructions.
Report Certain Employees Claiming Exemption From Withholding
to DRS
Employers are required to le copies of Form CT-W4 with DRS for
certain employees claiming “E” (no withholding is necessary). See
IP 2021(1). Mail copies of Forms CT-W4 meeting the conditions listed
in IP 2021(1) under Reporting Certain Employees to:
Department of Revenue Services
PO Box 2931
Hartford CT 06104-2931

Future Developments
For the latest information about developments related to
Form W-4, such as legislation enacted after it was published,
go to www.irs.gov/FormW4.
Purpose of Form
Complete Form W-4 so that your employer can withhold the
correct federal income tax from your pay. If too little is
withheld, you will generally owe tax when you file your tax
return and may owe a penalty. If too much is withheld, you
will generally be due a refund. Complete a new Form W-4
when changes to your personal or financial situation would
change the entries on the form. For more information on
withholding and when you must furnish a new Form W-4,
see Pub. 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax.
Exemption from withholding. You may claim exemption
from withholding for 2021 if you meet both of the following
conditions: you had no federal income tax liability in 2020
and you expect to have no federal income tax liability in
2021. You had no federal income tax liability in 2020 if (1)
your total tax on line 24 on your 2020 Form 1040 or 1040-SR
is zero (or less than the sum of lines 27, 28, 29, and 30), or
(2) you were not required to file a return because your
income was below the filing threshold for your correct filing
status. If you claim exemption, you will have no income tax
withheld from your paycheck and may owe taxes and
penalties when you file your 2021 tax return. To claim
exemption from withholding, certify that you meet both of
the conditions above by writing “Exempt” on Form W-4 in
the space below Step 4(c). Then, complete Steps 1(a), 1(b),
and 5. Do not complete any other steps. You will need to
submit a new Form W-4 by February 15, 2022.
Your privacy. If you prefer to limit information provided in
Steps 2 through 4, use the online estimator, which will also
increase accuracy.
As an alternative to the estimator: if you have concerns
with Step 2(c), you may choose Step 2(b); if you have
concerns with Step 4(a), you may enter an additional amount
you want withheld per pay period in Step 4(c). If this is the
only job in your household, you may instead check the box
in Step 2(c), which will increase your withholding and
significantly reduce your paycheck (often by thousands of
dollars over the year).
When to use the estimator. Consider using the estimator at
www.irs.gov/W4App if you:
1. Expect to work only part of the year;
2. Have dividend or capital gain income, or are subject to
additional taxes, such as Additional Medicare Tax;
3. Have self-employment income (see below); or
4. Prefer the most accurate withholding for multiple job
situations.
Self-employment. Generally, you will owe both income and
self-employment taxes on any self-employment income you
receive separate from the wages you receive as an
employee. If you want to pay these taxes through
withholding from your wages, use the estimator at
www.irs.gov/W4App to figure the amount to have withheld.
Nonresident alien. If you’re a nonresident alien, see Notice
1392, Supplemental Form W-4 Instructions for Nonresident
Aliens, before completing this form.
Specific Instructions
Step 1(c). Check your anticipated filing status. This will
determine the standard deduction and tax rates used to
compute your withholding.
Step 2. Use this step if you (1) have more than one job at the
same time, or (2) are married filing jointly and you and your
spouse both work.
Option (a) most accurately calculates the additional tax
you need to have withheld, while option (b) does so with a
little less accuracy.
If you (and your spouse) have a total of only two jobs, you
may instead check the box in option (c). The box must also
be checked on the Form W-4 for the other job. If the box is
checked, the standard deduction and tax brackets will be
cut in half for each job to calculate withholding. This option
is roughly accurate for jobs with similar pay; otherwise, more
tax than necessary may be withheld, and this extra amount
will be larger the greater the difference in pay is between the
two jobs.
!
CAUTION
Multiple jobs. Complete Steps 3 through 4(b) on only
one Form W-4. Withholding will be most accurate if
you do this on the Form W-4 for the highest paying job.
Step 3. This step provides instructions for determining the
amount of the child tax credit and the credit for other
dependents that you may be able to claim when you file your
tax return. To qualify for the child tax credit, the child must
be under age 17 as of December 31, must be your
dependent who generally lives with you for more than half
the year, and must have the required social security number.
You may be able to claim a credit for other dependents for
whom a child tax credit can’t be claimed, such as an older
child or a qualifying relative. For additional eligibility
requirements for these credits, see Pub. 972, Child Tax
Credit and Credit for Other Dependents. You can also
include other tax credits in this step, such as education tax
credits and the foreign tax credit. To do so, add an estimate
of the amount for the year to your credits for dependents
and enter the total amount in Step 3. Including these credits
will increase your paycheck and reduce the amount of any
refund you may receive when you file your tax return.
Step 4 (optional).
Step 4(a). Enter in this step the total of your other
estimated income for the year, if any. You shouldn’t include
income from any jobs or self-employment. If you complete
Step 4(a), you likely won’t have to make estimated tax
payments for that income. If you prefer to pay estimated tax
rather than having tax on other income withheld from your
paycheck, see Form 1040-ES, Estimated Tax for Individuals.
Step 4(b). Enter in this step the amount from the Deductions
Worksheet, line 5, if you expect to claim deductions other than
the basic standard deduction on your 2021 tax return and
want to reduce your withholding to account for these
deductions. This includes both itemized deductions and other
deductions such as for student loan interest and IRAs.
Step 4(c). Enter in this step any additional tax you want
withheld from your pay each pay period, including any
amounts from the Multiple Jobs Worksheet, line 4. Entering an
amount here will reduce your paycheck and will either increase
your refund or reduce any amount of tax that you owe.
Form W-4 (2021)
Page 3
Step 2(b)—Multiple Jobs Worksheet (Keep for your records.)
If you choose the option in Step 2(b) on Form W-4, complete this worksheet (which calculates the total extra tax for all jobs) on only ONE
Form W-4. Withholding will be most accurate if you complete the worksheet and enter the result on the Form W-4 for the highest paying job.
Note: If more than one job has annual wages of more than $120,000 or there are more than three jobs, see Pub. 505 for additional
tables; or, you can use the online withholding estimator at www.irs.gov/W4App.
