State Tax Forms
Tax Withholding Forms
You must complete tax withholding forms at the time of your hire and when your personal or financial situation changes. We only accept tax forms from a GW email address sent to payroll
gwu [dot] edu (payroll[at]gwu[dot]edu) or by using the Payroll Documents Upload button below. Federal taxes should be set up in GWeb using the Federal Withholding Update Instructions when your I-9 is complete. Please visit the Form W-4 & State Tax Withholding page for more information.
To submit your signed and dated document, click the button below where you will be prompted to login to Box using your GW credentials. Fill in the fields of the form.
State Forms
DC, VA, and MD should be set up and changed in GWeb. Visit our Self-Service page for instructions in the Federal and State Tax section. The University is responsible for accurately withholding your state and/or local income tax based on your actual work location except for DC, VA, and MD. Please visit the State Income Tax section of the Tax Department website for more information. It is your responsibility to ensure your work location on record is accurate and up to date. You can visit the Updating Work Location Instructions page for assistance. Please remember if your state of residence changes, you must update your state withholding information.
