What recourse do I have if my employeer did not take out enough tax from my paycheck?
Is it my fault if my W-4 is correct and they just did not take out enough money?
Additional Details
This means that I owe the government money.

If the employer is sending in all that is withheld, and it just isn't enough to cover the tax bill, all you can do is fill out a new w-4 and have more withheld. This happens a lot with people that have two jobs, because each job withholds at a low rate, as though that was the only job, but the two incomes increases the actual rate. On the other hand, if your employer is withholding the dough, but not paying the amount withheld, contact the United States Attorney in your district and that employer will be prosecuted. You will still owe the money, however.

It is your responsibility to make sure that enough withholding is being taken out, not your employer. It is your employer's responsibility to make sure that they are withholding in accordance to the Form W-4 you submitted. If your employer is withholding according to your W-4, it isn't their fault if the withholding is not enough to cover your tax liability.

One thing to remember is that the withholding tables, using withholding allowances, is calculated on the assumption that you are claiming standard deduction and normal exemptions, and does not account for credits such as the earned income credit or the child tax credit. Also, when you are using the married withholding tables, it is on the assumption that it is a single income family. So if you are filing married with x exemptions and your spouse is also using married with x exemptions on his/her W-4, you will end up being underwithheld.

None. It is your problem, not your employer's.

Ultimately, you are responsible for any taxes owed. You can complain to your company, but the IRS doesn't care.

Change your withholding amount now, just you you don't get burned next year.


shar71vette
fault is irrelevant. you owe the taxes irregardless. however, to prevent a future problem, make sure your w-4 is correct, and count on paying 28-30% of your income on taxes. look at your next paystub, make sure that amount is paid to taxes. if not, open a separate account and put the money aside for next year a week at a time so you aren't strapped at tax time.

You will end up paying taxes. It was their fault but you are still responsible for the taxes owed to the goverment. I would go to your Payroll Department and ask them to rectify the error so they will start collecting the taxes correctly for your earnings. For the past taxes I would say that's said and done. If they didn't take enough to cover what you owe most likely you will not get a refund and will end up owing money to the IRS. If so, and you do not have the money to pay for it all at once they are pretty good at setting up instalments or monthly payments. Good luck!

This means that you owe the government money---Yes. Talk to someone--I think if you claim one less dependent, you should come out ahead.


SOCKIONE
Immediately fill out a W-4 form again. Have extra money taken out of your check, so when the end of the year comes along you should be in good shape. Call the IRS tomorrow and set up a payment plan to pay back the money you owe the government. They are usually very friendly and will ask you what you can afford to pay back each month. Don't say more than what you can afford to stay on track with your living expenses. You MUST pay religiously every single month, or what you owe will go into default. If this happens the government will demand the balance be paid in full immediately.
