Campus Announcements
Campus Announcements for Oct. 5, 2009
With less than four months remaining in the year, the Human Resource Department would like to send a reminder out for employees to check their tax withholding levels. As you may remember, the Making Work Pay tax credit (MWPC) has lowered tax withholding rates for 2009. This change could result in withholding that is less than your personal income tax liability. Individuals among the following groups should pay particular attention to their withholding:
· Pensioners
· Married couples with two incomes
· Individuals with multiple jobs
· Workers who can be claimed as dependents by other taxpayers
Employees can access the IRS Withholding Calculator to ensure enough income tax is withheld for 2009. For further information, please refer to the IRS Publication 919 (How Do I Adjust My Tax Withholding). Individuals who wish to make adjustments to their withholding may complete a Federal W-4 and return it to Lauren Holmes in the Human Resource Department.
Please remember that we cannot provide individual tax advice. Employees are encouraged to speak to their personal tax advisor for more information on how the MWPC may affect their personal tax liability.
