Seems fairly simply and thx for agreeing that the W-4 is completely voluntary.?

Question

Glad to see u agree w/ the statute as written. However, I'm not sure why any company wouldn't hire an American for 'respectfully declining' to sign a little piece of govt paper that everyone knowls is completely 'voluntary'. That makes little sense.

And yes, we all realize that if you have participated in a taxable activity, and have taxable income you must pay the excise tax. thx for ur input.

Answer 1

depends on the job. the company may just want to make it easier as they are higher a payroll company to handle their payroll. when an employee mucks it for them, that means it may take additional time to "placate" that one employee to serve a paycheck in the way they want it.

or the payroll service they higher are not capable of doing paychecks without the W-4 withholdings in it.
