How to fill out 2012 income tax withholding

How to fill out 2012 income tax withholding:

1. Obtain the necessary forms: To begin filling out your 2012 income tax withholding, you will need to obtain the appropriate forms from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) website or your local tax office. The primary form you will need is the W-4, Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate.
2. Provide personal information: The first step in filling out the W-4 form is to provide your personal information, such as your name, address, and Social Security number. Make sure to double-check the accuracy of this information as any errors could lead to complications when filing your taxes.
3. Complete the filing status section: On the W-4 form, you will need to indicate your filing status. This includes options such as single, married filing jointly, married filing separately, or head of household. Select the appropriate filing status that applies to your situation.
4. Claim allowances: The next section on the W-4 form requires you to claim allowances. These allowances determine how much federal income tax should be withheld from your pay. The more allowances you claim, the less tax will be withheld. The IRS provides a worksheet accompanying the form to help you determine the number of allowances you can claim based on your specific circumstances.
5. Consider additional withholding: If you anticipate owing more taxes at the end of the year or prefer to have a larger tax refund, you can choose to have additional withholding. This helps ensure that enough tax is being withheld from your paycheck. The W-4 form provides this option, and you can specify the additional amount you want to be withheld.
6. Submit the form to your employer: Once you have completed the necessary sections on the W-4 form, you need to submit it to your employer. They will update their records and adjust the amount of income tax withheld from your paycheck accordingly. Make sure to keep a copy of the completed form for your records.

Who needs 2012 income tax withholding:

1. Employees: Any individual who was employed in 2012 and received taxable income is required to have income tax withheld. This includes full-time, part-time, and seasonal employees.
2. Self-employed individuals: If you are self-employed and have made estimated tax payments throughout the year, you may not require income tax withholding. However, if you have both self-employment income and wages from working as an employee, you may need to fill out a W-4 form to have income tax withheld from your employment income.
3. Individuals with multiple jobs: If you hold multiple jobs simultaneously or consecutively throughout the year, you will need to carefully assess your withholding status for each job. This ensures that enough income tax is withheld from your total earnings.
4. Individuals with significant investment income: If you have significant investment income from sources such as interest, dividends, or capital gains, you may need to have income tax withheld. Consult with a tax professional or utilize the IRS resources to determine if you need to fill out a W-4 form for income tax withholding.
