Federal regulations require that all new employees complete the following forms:
Form W-4, I-9 and the Student Ohio School District Report are fill-in pdf forms, if you do not have Acrobat Reader, click here to download it for free.
Form W-4 is the Federal Income Tax Withholding form. When completing this form, please be sure your name and social security number are identical to the information shown on your social security card.
Tips: For line 5, the higher the number of exemptions, the lower the tax withheld; S (single) and 0 (exemptions) will withhold the most tax. You may enter a $ amount on line 6 if you wish to have extra tax withheld. Claiming "Exempt" on line 7 indicates you are to have NO federal income tax withheld. To do this you must meet the stated IRS criteria. Another helpful tool is located on the IRS Web site, a IRS Withholding Calculator.
Form I-9 is the Department of Homeland Security Employment Verification form. Students should complete Section 1 (through "Employee Signature") only. The most common forms used as verification for the I-9 form are the State-issued Driver's License, the original Social Security Card, or a Certified copy of the Birth Certificate (must include an official seal). Complete instructions and acceptable documents can be found on Page 1, 2 and Page 4 of the I-9 form information.
*Student Ohio School District Report is the form showing your *Ohio School District Number (for Ohio residents only). An out-of-state resident indicates "No." If you are a resident of PA, WV, IN, KY, MI and wish to be exempt from Ohio tax, please complete line 5 of the Student Ohio School District Report.
