Massachusetts makes M-4 form and withholding changes

12/05/19

Author: ADP Admin/Thursday, December 5, 2019/Categories: Compliance Corner

The state of Massachusetts has updated their Form M-4 "Massachusetts Employee's Withholding Exemption Certificate." The form indicates that employees shall file Form M-4 with their employers. Since Massachusetts no longer accepts the Federal Form W-4, Massachusetts will now default to Single Zero for withholding calculations in instances where an employee does not remit Form M-4 (previously, the Federal elections were used in that scenario). 

ADP will be making system changes to comply with this change. As a result, Massachusetts employees may see a change to their Massachusetts State income tax withholding amounts beginning with payrolls processed on or about December 5, 2019.
