General Instructions Purpose of form. Give this form to the third-party payer of your sick pay, such as an insurance company, if you want federal income tax withheld from the payments. You aren’t required to have federal income tax withheld from sick pay paid by a third party. However, if you choose to request such withholding, Internal Revenue Code sections 3402(o) and 6109 and their regulations require you to provide the information requested on this form. Don’t use this form if your employer (or its agent) makes the payments because employers are already required to withhold federal income tax from sick pay. Note: If you receive sick pay under a collective bargaining agreement, see your union representative or employer. Definition. Sick pay is a payment that you receive: • Under a plan to which your employer is a party, and • In place of wages for any period when you’re temporarily absent from work because of your sickness or injury. Amount to be withheld. Enter on this form the amount that you want withheld from each payment. The amount that you enter: • Must be in whole dollars (for example, $35, not $34.50). • Must be at least $4 per day, $20 per week, or $88 per month based on your payroll period. • Must not reduce the net amount of each sick pay payment that you receive to less than $10. For Paperwork Reduction Act Notice, see page 2. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 For payments larger or smaller than a regular full payment of sick pay, the amount withheld will be in the same proportion as your regular withholding from sick pay. For example, if your regular full payment of $100 a week normally has $25 (25%) withheld, then $20 (25%) will be withheld from a partial payment of $80. Caution: You may be subject to a penalty if your tax payments during the year aren’t at least 90% of the tax shown on your tax return. For exceptions and details, see Pub. 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax. You may pay tax during the year through withholding or estimated tax payments or both. To avoid a penalty, make sure that you have enough tax withheld or make estimated tax payments using Form 1040-ES, Estimated Tax for Individuals. You may estimate your federal income tax liability by using the worksheet above. Sign this form. Form W-4S is not valid unless you sign it. Statement of income tax withheld. After the end of the year, you’ll receive a Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, reporting the taxable sick pay paid and federal income tax withheld during the year. These amounts are reported to the IRS. Changing your withholding. Form W-4S remains in effect until you change or revoke it. You may do this by giving a new Form W-4S or a written notice to the payer of your sick pay. To revoke your previous Form W-4S, complete a new Form W-4S and write “Revoked” in the money amount box, sign it, and give it to the payer. (continued on back) Cat. No. 10226E Form W-4S (2024) Page 2 Form W-4S (2024) Specific Instructions for Worksheet You may use the worksheet on page 1 to estimate the amount of federal income tax that you want withheld from each sick pay payment. Use your tax return for last year and the worksheet as a basis for estimating your tax, tax credits, and withholding for this year. You may not want to use Form W-4S if you already have your total tax covered by estimated tax payments or other withholding. If you expect to file a joint return, be sure to include the income, deductions, credits, and payments of both yourself and your spouse in figuring the amount you want withheld. Caution: If any of the amounts on the worksheet change after you give Form W-4S to the payer, you should use a new Form W-4S to request a change in the amount withheld.

About the Corporate Income Tax

The IRS and most states require corporations to file an income tax return, with the exact filing requirements depending on the type of company.

Sole proprietorships or disregarded entities like LLCs are filed on Schedule C (or the state equivalent) of the owner's personal income tax return, flow-through entities like S Corporations or Partnerships are generally required to file an informational return equivilent to the IRS Form 1120S or Form 1065, and full corporations must file the equivalent of federal Form 1120 (and, unlike flow-through corporations, are often subject to a corporate tax liability).

Additional forms are available for a wide variety of specific entities and transactions including fiduciaries, nonprofits, and companies involved in other specific types of business.
