Form W-4 (2018)

Future developments. For the latest

information about any future developments

related to Form W-4, such as legislation

enacted after it was published, go to

www.irs.gov/FormW4.

Purpose. Complete Form W-4 so that your

employer can withhold the correct federal

income tax from your pay. Consider

completing a new Form W-4 each year and

when your personal or financial situation

changes.

Exemption from withholding. You may

claim exemption from withholding for 2018

if both of the following apply.

• For 2017 you had a right to a refund of all

federal income tax withheld because you

had no tax liability, and

• For 2018 you expect a refund of all

federal income tax withheld because you

expect to have no tax liability.

If you’re exempt, complete only lines 1, 2,

3, 4, and 7 and sign the form to validate it.

Your exemption for 2018 expires February

15, 2019. See Pub. 505, Tax Withholding

and Estimated Tax, to learn more about

whether you qualify for exemption from

withholding.

General Instructions

If you aren’t exempt, follow the rest of

these instructions to determine the number

of withholding allowances you should claim

for withholding for 2018 and any additional

amount of tax to have withheld. For regular

wages, withholding must be based on

allowances you claimed and may not be a

flat amount or percentage of wages.

You can also use the calculator at

www.irs.gov/W4App to determine your

tax withholding more accurately. Consider

using this calculator if you have a more

complicated tax situation, such as if you

have a working spouse, more than one job,

or a large amount of nonwage income

outside of your job. After your Form W-4

takes effect, you can also use this

calculator to see how the amount of tax

you’re having withheld compares to your

projected total tax for 2018. If you use the

calculator, you don’t need to complete any

of the worksheets for Form W-4.

Note that if you have too much tax

withheld, you will receive a refund when you

file your tax return. If you have too little tax

withheld, you will owe tax when you file your

tax return, and you might owe a penalty.

Filers with multiple jobs or working

spouses. If you have more than one job at

a time, or if you’re married and your

spouse is also working, read all of the

instructions including the instructions for

the Two-Earners/Multiple Jobs Worksheet

before beginning.

Nonwage income. If you have a large

amount of nonwage income, such as

interest or dividends, consider making

estimated tax payments using Form 1040-

ES, Estimated Tax for Individuals.

Otherwise, you might owe additional tax.

Or, you can use the Deductions,

Adjustments, and Other Income Worksheet

on page 3 or the calculator at www.irs.gov/

W4App to make sure you have enough tax

withheld from your paycheck. If you have

pension or annuity income, see Pub. 505 or

use the calculator at www.irs.gov/W4App

to find out if you should adjust your

withholding on Form W-4 or W-4P.

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

Personal Allowances Worksheet

Complete this worksheet on page 3 first to

determine the number of withholding

allowances to claim.

Line C. Head of household please note:

Generally, you can claim head of

household filing status on your tax return

only if you’re unmarried and pay more than

50% of the costs of keeping up a home for

yourself and a qualifying individual. See

Pub. 501 for more information about filing

status.

Line E. Child tax credit. When you file

your tax return, you might be eligible to

claim a credit for each of your qualifying

children. To qualify, the child must be

under age 17 as of December 31 and must

be your dependent who lives with you for

more than half the year. To learn more

about this credit, see Pub. 972, Child Tax

Credit. To reduce the tax withheld from

your pay by taking this credit into account,

follow the instructions on line E of the

worksheet. On the worksheet you will be

asked about your total income. For this

purpose, total income includes all of your

wages and other income, including income

earned by a spouse, during the year.

Line F. Credit for other dependents.

When you file your tax return, you might be

eligible to claim a credit for each of your

dependents that don’t qualify for the child

tax credit, such as any dependent children

age 17 and older. To learn more about this

credit, see Pub. 505. To

reduce the tax

withheld from your pay by taking this credit

into account, follow the instructions on line

F of the worksheet. On the worksheet, you

will be asked about your total income. For

this purpose, total income includes all of

your wages and other income, including

income earned by a spouse, during the year.

Line G. Other credits. You might be able

to reduce the tax withheld from your

paycheck if you expect to claim other tax

credits, such as the earned income tax

credit and tax credits for education and

child care expenses. If you do so, your

paycheck will be larger but the amount of

any refund that you receive when you file

your tax return will be smaller. Follow the

instructions for Worksheet 1-6 in Pub. 505

if you want to reduce your withholding to

take these credits into account.

Deductions, Adjustments, and

Additional Income Worksheet

Complete this worksheet to determine if

you’re able to reduce the tax withheld from

your paycheck to account for your itemized

deductions and other adjustments to

income such as IRA contributions. If you

do so, your refund at the end of the year

will be smaller, but your paycheck will be

larger. You’re not required to complete this

worksheet or reduce your withholding if

you don’t wish to do so.

You can also use this worksheet to figure

out how much to increase the tax withheld

from your paycheck if you have a large

amount of nonwage income, such as

interest or dividends.

Another option is to take these items into

account and make your withholding more

accurate by using the calculator at

www.irs.gov/W4App. If you use the

calculator, you don’t need to complete any

of the worksheets for Form W-4.

Two-Earners/Multiple Jobs

Worksheet

Complete this worksheet if you have more

than one job at a time or are married filing

jointly and have a working spouse. If you

don’t complete this worksheet, you might

have too little tax withheld. If so, you will

owe tax when you file your tax return and

might be subject to a penalty.

Figure the total number of allowances

you’re entitled to claim and any additional

amount of tax to withhold on all jobs using

worksheets from only one Form W-4. Claim

all allowances on the W-4 that you or your

spouse file for the highest paying job in

your family and claim zero allowances on

Forms W-4 filed for all other jobs. For

example, if you earn $60,000 per year and

your spouse earns $20,000, you should

complete the worksheets to determine

what to enter on lines 5 and 6 of your Form

W-4, and your spouse should enter zero

(“-0-”) on lines 5 and 6 of his or her Form

W-4. See Pub. 505 for details.

Another option is to use the calculator at

www.irs.gov/W4App to make your

withholding more accurate.

Tip: If you have a working spouse and your

incomes are similar, you can check the

“Married, but withhold at higher Single

rate” box instead of using this worksheet. If

you choose this option, then each spouse

should fill out the Personal Allowances

Worksheet and check the “Married, but

withhold at higher Single rate” box on Form

W-4, but only one spouse should claim any

allowances for credits or fill out the

Deductions, Adjustments, and Additional

Income Worksheet.
