What Makes a W-4 Form Invalid
Federal:
- Missing social security number and/or missing name and address
- Inaction in 1c (failure to mark a marital status)
- Lack of signature at the bottom of the form
- Completing and dating a form in the current year on a form from a previous year
- The year of the form should match the year form is signed
State:
- Missing social security number or other information
- Marking a number of allowances in field 6 AND marking an exemption box in field 8
- Field 6 tells us how much to withhold for taxes and field 8 indicates not to withhold at all so if both are used the form is invalid
- Failure to mark either field 6 or field 8
- Lack of signature on the form
