Forms / W-4
Fill out the W-4 online
The form you give your employer so they know how much federal income tax to withhold from your pay.
How it works
- Download the current form from the IRS: IRS page for Form W-4. We do not host agency forms, so you always start from the official one.
- Open EkaSetu PDF and choose the file, or drop it on the window. Click a blank to type in it, or use Detect fields if the PDF has none.
- Add your signature as a picture of your signature, if the form needs one.
- Download your filled copy.
Who fills it in
An employee gives it to their employer. You do not send it to the IRS yourself.
What goes on the form
- Step 1: your name, address, Social Security number and filing status.
- Step 2: only if you have more than one job, or a spouse who works.
- Step 3: claim dependents, if they apply to you.
- Step 4: optional adjustments, such as other income, deductions or extra withholding.
- Step 5: sign and date. Your employer fills in their own part at the bottom.
What stays on your computer
Your PDF is read in your browser's memory. Its name, text and pages are not sent to EkaSetu. Downloads are made on your computer, and the file on your disk is not changed until you save or download. If you choose Save to EkaSetu, or sign with a record on a paid plan, that file is uploaded; the app says so before it happens.
Questions
Is my file uploaded?
No, not unless you choose. The file is opened in your browser and stays on your computer unless you choose Save to EkaSetu or sign with a record.
Do I need an account?
No. Reading, filling and signing with your own signature are free and need no account.
Does this tell me how to answer the questions?
No. EkaSetu PDF helps you fill in the blanks. What to write is for the form's instructions and, where needed, the person who asked you for it.
Does the W-4 go to the IRS?
You give it to your employer, who keeps it and uses it to work out withholding. Check the form's own instructions for the details.
