Note

The IRS released Form W-4, Employee's Withholding Certificatein January 2020, which is vastly different from the old Form W-4 (there are no longer allowances, but rather five sections to review). Access this form in my.charlotte.edu from the Banner Self Service quick links. While you are not required to complete this form, it should be more accurate for individual withholdings. Please note: if you do not submit a new form, withholding will continue based on your previously submitted form.

Info

title	Instructions

Federal: Refer to the complete Form W-4 instructions before completing the online W-4 withholding form.

North Carolina: Refer to Form NC-4 instructions before completing the online NC-4 withholding form. If you are performing services for the University from a state other than NC, you will need to complete that state's withholding certificate and mail or fax it to the Payroll Department. Reference the delivery methods toward the bottom of this FAQ. For security purposes, do not email a form that contains your social security number.

Tip
Unless you update your W-4 and NC-4 withholding information, both your federal and state income tax withholding will default to single when you are originally hired and will continue to reflect those elections. Employees hired on Jan. 1, 2020, or later are required to complete the 2020 Form W-4 for federal payroll tax withholding purposes.
