Income Tax
The amount of income tax withheld is based on the information provided on your W4 form, including marital status and number of allowances. To see how your W4 form is currently recorded in TechPay, log on to My Earnings Record and look at your most recent earnings statement. The W4 notation appears in the deduction area after “Federal Income Tax.” Married with two allowances, for example, appears as M 2.
If you need to change your W4:
 
  • TTU employees - complete a new W4 Form on the Forms Page, print and return it to the Payroll Department at MS 1092 or Room 232 Drane Hall.
  • HSC employees – complete a new card in the Payroll Department, Health Sciences Center, 1B134.
  • Regional campuses – contact your local Human Resource Office.
  Generally a change will be effective on payrolls processed after receipt of the form in the Payroll Department. For specific information on the effective date contact the Payroll Department, 742-3211 ext 250 for TTU or 743-2998 ext 242 for HSC.
Do not write “exempt” on line 7 of your W4 form unless you are very sure you meet the requirements specified on the form. Claiming exemption from withholding when you do have a tax liability may result in a substantial tax payment plus late payment penalties when you file your tax return.
Nonresident aliens are subject to income tax withholding rules that may prevent the W4 from being entered in the system as it was filled out. For more information on W4 forms and tax calculation for nonresident aliens, see IRS Publication 15 at: Click Here
