Who Do I Contact If Employer Isn Paying Federal Withholding Taxes?
If your employer is not withholding federal taxes, check your w-4 that you filled out. Or resubmit another w4 to your employer. If your Employer did not give you a w-4 to fill out, you might be self employed. If you filed the w4 You might have inadvertently checked some boxes and the calculation read little to no federal withholding. On line one you put 0 or 1 and check single rates box/ By law you can change this form at any time. If on the other hand you are a contract employee, you are required to pay your own federal taxes. This can be done by requesting the quarterly tax forms from the IRS. Basically you figure your tax bracket rate against your expected income and divide by 4 to figure how much to pay until the last quarter of the year. Send the payments to the IRS. You log your federal payments and keep records. Prior to filing your income tax return the IRS will send you a form stating how much fed taxes you paid. You use these amounts on the tax return.
