Employee General Instructions
Form CT-W4, Employee’s Withholding Certificate, provides your
employer with the necessary information to withhold the correct amount
of Connecticut income tax from your wages to ensure that you will not
be underwithheld or overwithheld.
You are required to pay Connecticut income tax as income is earned
or received during the year. You should complete a new Form CT-W4
at least once a year or if your tax situation changes.
If your circumstances change, such as you receive a bonus or your
ling status changes, you must furnish your employer with a new
Form CT-W4 within ten days of the change.
Gross Income
For Form CT-W4 purposes, gross income means all income from all
sources, whether received in the form of money, goods, property, or
services, not exempt from federal income tax, and includes any additions
to income from Schedule 1 of Form CT-1040, Connecticut Resident
Income Tax Return or Form CT-1040NR/PY, Connecticut Nonresident
and Part-Year Resident Return.
Filing Status
Generally, the ling status you expect to report on your Connecticut
income tax return is the same as the ling status you expect to report on
your federal income tax return. However, special rules apply to married
individuals who le a joint federal return but have a different residency
status. Nonresidents and part-year residents should see the instructions
to Form CT-1040NR/PY.
If you are a spouse in a same sex marriage, you must recalculate your
federal adjusted gross income as if your ling status for federal income
tax purposes were married ling jointly or married ling separately.
Check Your Withholding
You may be underwithheld if any of the following apply:
You have more than one job;
You qualify under Certain Married Individuals and do not use the
Supplemental Table on Page 3 and Page 4; or
You have substantial nonwage income.
If you are underwithheld, you should consider adjusting your withholding
or making estimated payments using Form CT-1040ES, Estimated
Connecticut Income Tax Payment Coupon for Individuals. You may also
select Withholding Code “D” to elect the highest level of withholding.
If you owe $1,000 or more in Connecticut income tax over and above
what has been withheld from your income for the prior taxable year, you
may be subject to interest on the underpayment at the rate of 1% per
month or fraction of a month.
You may be overwithheld if your combined annual income is more than
$200,000 but less than $700,000 and your Connecticut ling status
is ling jointly. To help determine if your withholding is correct, see
Informational Publication 2012(7), Is My Connecticut Withholding
Correct?
Nonresident Employees Working Partly Within and Partly
Outside of Connecticut
If you work partly within and partly outside of Connecticut for the same
employer, you should also complete Form CT-W4NA, Employee’s
Withholding or Exemption Certi cate - Nonresident Apportionment, and
provide it to your employer. The information on Form CT-W4NA and
Form CT-W4 will help your employer determine how much to withhold
from your wages for services performed within Connecticut. To obtain
Form CT-W4NA, visit the Department of Revenue Services (DRS)
website at www.ct.gov/DRS or request the form from your employer.
Any nonresident who expects to have no Connecticut income tax liability
should choose Withholding Code “E.”
Certain Married Individuals
If you are a married individual ling jointly and you and your spouse
both select Withholding Code “A,” you may have too much or too
little Connecticut income tax withheld from your pay. This is because
the phaseout of the personal exemption and credit is based on your
combined incomes. The withholding tables cannot re ect your exact
withholding requirement without considering the income of your spouse.
Form CT-W4 (Rev. 06/12)
To minimize this problem, use the Supplemental Table on Page 3 and
Page 4 to adjust your withholding. You are not required to use this table.
Do not use the supplemental table to adjust your withholding if you use
the worksheet in IP 2012(7).
Armed Forces Personnel and Veterans
If you are a Connecticut resident, your armed forces pay is subject to
Connecticut income tax withholding unless you qualify as a nonresident
f
or Connecticut income tax purposes.
If you qualify as a nonresident,
you may request that no Connecticut income tax be withheld from your
armed forces pay by entering Withholding Code “E” on Line 1.
Military Spouses Residency Relief Act (MSRRA)
If you are claiming an exemption from Connecticut income tax under the
MSRRA, you must provide your employer with a copy of your military
spouse’s Leave and Earnings Statement (LES) and a copy of your
military dependent ID card.
See Informational Publication
2009(21), Connecticut Income Tax
Information for Armed Forces Personnel and Veterans.
Employer Instructions
For any employee who does not complete Form CT-W4, you are required
to withhold at the highest marginal rate of 6.7% without allowance for
exemption. You are required to keep Form CT-W4 in your les for
each employee. See Informational Publication 2012(1), Connecticut
Employer’s Tax Guide, Circular CT, for complete instructions.
Report Certain Employees Claiming Exemption From Withholding
to DRS
Employers are required to le copies of Form CT-W4 with DRS for
certain employees claiming “E” (no withholding is necessary). See
IP 2012(1). Mail copies of Forms CT-W4 meeting the conditions listed
in IP 2012(1) under Reporting Certain Employees to DRS on Page 12
with Form CT-941, Connecticut Quarterly Reconciliation of Withholding,
if you le a paper return. If you le Form CT -941 electronically, mail only
the copies of Forms CT-W4 meeting the conditions listed in IP 2012(1) to:
DRS, PO Box 2931, Hartford CT 06104-2931.
