A filled-in SP-8215 example: a net withdrawal with no federal tax withheld

SP-8215 example filled out, example: a net withdrawal with no federal tax withheld
Jane Sample asks National Western for a partial surrender of her annuity. She is the insured owner and wants a net withdrawal with no federal tax withheld. The picture shows page 1; every value in it is made up. A completed W-4R is attached to the form and an IRS Form W-9 is returned with it. She does not want state income tax withheld, so the state withholding box stays empty. Nothing goes in Owner (If other than insured) because she is the insured. Joint Owner's Date of Birth is left blank because she has no joint owner. No delivery method is marked, so the check goes by USPS 1st Class Mail.

Tax Withholding (Check all that apply)

SP-8215 example filled out, tax Withholding (Check all that apply)

NOTE: You may incur a charge as a result of this withdrawal. Please refer to your policy contract for partial withdrawal provisions. Tax Withholding (Check all that apply): I do not want federal income tax withheld from the taxable portion of my distribution check, and have attached a completed W-4R to this form. If a W-4R has not been provided, or the W-4R contains an incorrect SSN, 10% withholding will apply. I want federal tax withheld from the taxable portion of my distribution check at a rate between 0% and 100%, and have attached a completed W-4R to this form. If a W-4R has not been provided, or the W-4R contains an incorrect SSN, 10% withholding will apply. I want state income tax withheld at a rate of _________ %.

Withholding will only apply to the portion of your distribution that is included in your income subject to federal income tax.

Thus, there would be no withholding on the return of your own nondeductible contribution.

If an election is not made or if withholding is elected, the Company is required to withhold as follows: If your check is a nonperiodic payment, the rate of withholding will be either: (a) determined according to computational procedures or tables provided in the Treasury Regulations accompanying Internal Revenue Code Section 3405 if the distribution is either a qualified total distribution or a total distribution by reason of death of the participant; or (b) 10% for any other nonperiodic payment, unless a different rate is requested.

Please note that if your payments of estimated tax are inadequate and a sufficient amount of tax is not withheld from any distribution, penalties may be assessed under estimated tax rules. Certain states may require a mandatory default rate of withholding in the event federal withholding is elected, requiring the mandatory default rate to be used in place of the state rate described, unless a higher rate was elected. For Connecticut and Michigan, failure to provide a properly completed CT-W4P or MI-W4P will result in a mandatory withholding rate of 6.99% (CT) or 4.25% (MI), regardless of whether federal withholding has been elected. These rates may be changed from time to time.

Please note: If you elect not to have withholding apply to your payment, or if you do not have enough federal income tax withheld, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax.
