Form W-4 and 2022 Withholding: Compliance Training for Payroll and HR
In this 75-minute interactive online training, you will learn how to:
Get in compliance for 2022
Discover if your W-4 and withholding processes are in compliance for this year.
Adapt to the W-4 changes
Understand how the IRS’ new “computational bridge” for employees who have old W-4s on file can make your payroll calculations easier.
Explain it correctly to employees
Learn how to communicate with your employees about this complex new form.
The W-4 used to be a simple half page. Now it looks like a tax return and employees have to do the math!
More than two years into this new W-4 format and the new withholding rules are still sparking confusion among both employees as well as Payroll and HR professionals. In the latest W-4 change, the IRS did not inflation-adjust withholding amounts for 2022. As a result, employees who don’t check their withholdings may be under- or overwithheld … and they’ll blame you next year if they have to write a check to the U.S. Treasury.
Is your W-4 process in compliance? Discover the new rules for employee withholding and get all of your questions answered. Even if you outsource payroll to a third party, the IRS will always hold you responsible for any mistakes—so it's your job to guarantee compliance.

Bring your W-4 questions for Alice and she'll answer them during the dedicated Q&A time.

Agenda for Form W-4 and 2022 Withholding: Compliance Training for Payroll & HR
- What’s new about the W-4 process ... and how to quickly get your company into compliance.
- What those W-4 worksheets are about and how they affect withholding. For years the IRS included worksheets along with the form. Most employees ignored them. Now they can't.
- How to help employees use the IRS' withholding estimator. Employees who've used the estimator are getting their withholding wrong. You can help.
- How to explain these changes to employees. When employees need (or choose) to update their W-4s, don't just hand them the confusing new form. Instead, create a communication plan to help employees fill out the form.
- What do we do if employees don't file a new W-4? Since most employees don't refile their W-4s, and the IRS says it can't make them refile, your payroll system must now account for two radically different W-4 forms and withholding methods. But don't worry—the IRS has a solution for this! And it works … sort of.
- Are all those old W-4s still valid? To prevent IRS penalties, learn the three circumstances that require employees to absolutely file new W-4s. Plus, discover the five situations in which you should immediately reject a W-4, and what to do when the IRS sends you a letter voiding an employee's W-4.
- Are your withholding processes correct? Computer programs and vendors are only as good as the data you've supplied. Best practice: Figure your own withholding at least once a year. (Doing so this year is a necessity!) We'll decipher the IRS' step-by-step instructions that let you do just that.
- What’s the impact of the pandemic? Employees you rehire may not have completed a W-4 in many years. They have to file the new form now, and you can help them avoid costly mistakes.
- How do you handle supplemental pay? You'll also be able to spot the 12 different types of supplemental pay (including noncash payments) and to apply the seven key rules for withholding on supplemental pay.
- Plus, get answers to your own withholding questions from attorney Alice Gilman, editor of Payroll Legal Alert, a true payroll expert!
