Did You Claim Tax Exempt Status in 2021?
All employees who claimed total exemption from income tax withholding in 2021 must submit a new 2022 Form W-4 by February 15, 2022 to continue to claim exemption from withholding in the new year. After that date, Illinois State must begin withholding income tax if the 2022 Form W-4 is not submitted.
W-4 Requirements for Non-U.S. Citizen Employees
Non-U.S. Citizen Employees must not fill out a new W-4 or make changes to an existing W-4 without guidance from a tax specialist in the University Payroll Office. If applicable, treaty benefits need to be renewed each calendar year. Please schedule an appointment through Calendly (in-person or virtual) to meet with a tax specialist.
