Changes in form WH-4

Sec. 102. Refiling of State Form WH-4. The Employee's Withholding Exemption and County Residence Certificate (Form WH-4) must

be refiled with the employer to show any change in residence or number of exemptions.

Change of Residence

All employees who change their county of residence or their county of principal work activity are required to file a new state Form WH-4

by January 1 of the following year.

Change in Exemptions

You may file a new WH-4 at any time if the number of your exemptions increase. You must file a new WH-4 within 10 days if the number

of exemptions previously claimed by you decreases for any of the following reasons:

(a) Your wife (or husband) for whom you have been claiming an exemption is divorced or legally separated, or claims her (or his)

own exemption on a separate certificate.

(b) The support of a dependent for whom you claim an exemption is taken over by someone else, so that you no longer expect to

furnish more than half the support for the year.

(c) You find that a dependent for whom you claim an exemption will receive $750.00 or more of income of his own during the

year.

Other decreases in exemptions such as the death of a spouse or a dependent, do not affect your withholding until the next year, but require

the filing of a new WH-4 by December 1 of the year in which they occur.
