YOUR CALIFORNIA PERSONAL INCOME TAX MAY BE UNDERWITHHELD IF YOU DO NOT FILE THIS DE 4 FORM

IF YOU RELY ON THE FEDERAL W-4 FOR YOUR CALIFORNIA WITHHOLDING ALLOWANCES, YOUR CALIFORNIA STATE PERSONAL INCOME TAX MAY BE UNDERWITHHELD AND YOU MAY OWE MONEY AT THE END OF THE YEAR.

PURPOSE: This certificate, DE 4, is for California personal income tax withholding purposes only. The DE 4 is used to compute the amount of taxes to be withheld from your wages, by your employer, to accurately reflect your state tax-withholding obligation.

You should complete this form if either:

(1)You claim a different marital status, number of regular allowances, or different additional dollar amount to be withheld for California personal income tax withholding than you claim for federal income tax withholding or,

(2)You claim additional allowances for estimated deductions.

THIS FORM WILL NOT CHANGE YOUR FEDERAL WITH- HOLDING ALLOWANCES.

The Federal Form W-4 is applicable for California withholding purposes if you wish to claim the same marital status, number of regular allowances, and/or the same additional dollar amount to be withheld for state and federal purposes. However, federal tax brackets and withholding methods do not

reflect state personal income tax withholding tables. If you rely on the number of withholding allowances you claim on your Federal W-4 withholding allowance certificate for your state income tax withholding, you may be significantly underwithheld. This is particularly true if your household income is derived from more than one source.

CHECK YOUR WITHHOLDING: After your W-4 and/or DE 4 takes effect, compare the state income tax withheld with your estimated total annual tax. For state withholding, use the worksheets on this form and for federal withholding use the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Publication 919 or federal withholding calculations.

EXEMPTION FROM WITHHOLDING: If you wish to claim exempt, complete the federal Form W-4. You may only claim exempt from withholding California income tax if you did not owe any federal income tax last year and you do not expect to owe any federal income tax this year. The exemption automatically expires on February 15 of the next year. If you continue to qualify for the exempt filing status, a new Form W- 4 designating EXEMPT must be submitted before February 15. If you are not having federal income tax withheld this year but expect to have a tax liability next year, the law requires you to give your employer a new Form W-4 by December 1.

The California Employer’s Guide (DE 44) provides the income tax withholding tables. This publication may be found on EDD’s Web site at www.edd.ca.gov/taxrep/taxform.htm. To assist you in calculating your tax liability, please visit the Franchise Tax Board’s Web site at: www.ftb.ca.gov/individuals/tax_table/index.asp.

NOTIFICATION: Your employer is required to send a copy of your DE 4 to the Employment Development Department (EDD) with the Quarterly Wage and Withholding Report (DE 6) if you claim more than 10 withholding allowances on the DE 4 and your Form W-4 is not reportable to the IRS.

IF THE IRS INSTRUCTS YOUR EMPLOYER TO WITHHOLD FEDERAL INCOME TAX BASED ON A CERTAIN WITHHOLDING STATUS, YOUR EMPLOYER IS REQUIRED TO USE THE SAME WITHHOLDING STATUS FOR STATE INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING IF YOUR WITHHOLDING ALLOWANCES FOR STATE PURPOSES MEET THE REQUIREMENTS LISTED UNDER “NOTIFICATION.” IF YOU FEEL THAT THE FEDERAL DETERMINATION IS NOT CORRECT FOR STATE WITHHOLDING PURPOSES, YOU MAY REQUEST A REVIEW.

To do so, write to:

Franchise Tax Board

Sacramento CA 95867

Your letter should contain the basis of your request for review. You will have the burden of showing the federal determination incorrect for state withholding purposes. The Franchise Tax Board (FTB) will limit its review to that issue. FTB will notify both you and your employer of its findings. Your employer is then required to withhold state income tax as instructed by FTB. In the event FTB or IRS finds there is no reasonable basis for the number of withholding exemptions that you claimed on your W-4/DE 4, you may be subject to a penalty.

PENALTY: You may be fined $500 if you file, with no reasonable basis, a DE 4 that results in less tax being withheld than is properly allowable. In addition, criminal penalties apply for willfully supplying false or fraudulent information or failing to supply information requiring an increase in withholding. This is provided for by

Section 19176 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code.

INSTRUCTIONS — 1 — ALLOWANCES

When determining your withholding allowances, you must consider your personal situation:

—Do you claim allowances for dependents or blindness?

—Are you going to itemize your deductions?

—Do you have more than one income coming into the household?

TWO-EARNER/TWO-JOBS: When earnings are derived from more than one source, underwithholding may occur. If you have a work-ing spouse or more than one job, it is best to check the box “SINGLE or MARRIED (with two or more incomes).” Figure the total number of allowances you are entitled to claim on all jobs using only one DE 4 form. Claim allowances with one employer. Do not claim the same allowances with more than one employer. Your withholding will usually be most accurate when all allowances are claimed on the DE 4 or W-4 filed for the highest paying job and zero allowances are claimed for the others.

MARRIED BUT NOT LIVING WITH YOUR SPOUSE: You may check the “Head of Household” marital status box if you meet all of the following tests:

(1)Your spouse will not live with you at any time during the year;

(2)You will furnish over half of the cost of maintaining a home for the entire year for yourself and your child or stepchild who qualifies as your dependent; and

(3)You will file a separate return for the year.

HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD: To qualify, you must be unmarried or legally separated from your spouse and pay more than 50% of the costs of maintaining a home for the entire year for yourself and your dependent(s) or other qualifying individuals. Cost of maintaining the home includes such items as rent, property insurance, property taxes, mortgage interest, repairs, utilities, and cost of food. It does not include the individual’s personal expenses or any amount which represents value of services performed by a member of the household of the taxpayer.

INSTRUCTIONS — 2 — ADDITIONAL WITHHOLDING ALLOWANCES

If you expect to itemize deductions on your California income tax return, you can claim additional withholding allowances. Use Worksheet B to determine whether your expected estimated deductions may entitle you to claim one or more additional withholding allowances. Use last year’s FTB 540 form as a model to calculate this year’s withholding amounts.

Do not include deferred compensation, qualified pension payments or flexible benefits, etc., that are deducted from your gross pay but are not taxed on this worksheet.

You may reduce the amount of tax withheld from your wages by claiming one additional withholding allowance for each $1,000, or fraction of $1,000, by which you expect your estimated deductions for the year to exceed your allowable standard deduction.

NOTE: Your employer is not required to withhold the additional amount requested on line 2 of your DE 4. If your employer does not agree to withhold the additional amount, you may increase your withholdings as much as possible by using the “single” status with “zero” allowances. If the amount withheld still results in an underpayment of state income taxes, you may need to file quarterly estimates on Form 540-ES with the FTB to avoid a penalty.
