• Author By Payroll Office
• January 22, 2025

To continue claiming an exemption from tax withholding for 2025, you must provide a new IRS Form W-4 to the University Payroll Office by February 15. Withholding status will be changed to "Single" if a new Form W-4 is not received by the Payroll Office by February 15. Follow the Updating Tax Withholding - Self Service instructions to update your Form W-4.

If a new Form W-4 claiming exemption status is received on or after February 16, it will apply to future wages. A refund of taxes withheld prior to receiving the form stating exempt status is not allowed.
