This non-editable row displays your home address (or mailing address if home and mailing addresses are the same).

The system will look in the Configure State tax Settings screen in Costpoint to find out whether the Allow employees to make State Withholding changes in ESS checkbox is selected. If it is, the Withholding State field will contains a list from which you can select the state that applies.  (If the checkbox is not selected, a non-editable field will display.)

When determining your withholding allowances, consider your personal situation. Use this lookup to select your personal status. If you change the Filing Status, the screen will refresh so that the exemptions/dependents/credits options that were set up on the Configure State tax Settings screen will be reflected for the chosen filing status.

If it applies to your selected state, enter the total number of allowances that you want to claim. The value entered cannot be less than zero or greater than the maximum number of allowances for the state. The more allowances you claim on the State Withholding form, the less income tax your employer will withhold.

If it applies to the selected state, enter the total number of dependents that you wish to claim. The value entered cannot be less than zero or greater than the maximum number of dependents allowed for the state.  

Beginning October 1, 2022, most employees in the State of Indiana are entitled to deduct $3,000 per year per qualifying adopted child claimed on line 7 of Form WH-4.

Currently, there is no field in Costpoint that can store and track the adopted child exemptions throughout Costpoint payroll. In order to be able to deduct this exemption when calculating state and local withholding amount, the number of adopted child dependent exemptions claimed on line 7 of Form WH-4 must be multiplied by two and the result must be added to the value in the Number of Dependents field.

In order to track the actual number of adopted child dependent exemptions claimed on line 7 of Form WH-4, this information-only field has been added. Costpoint will be able to use this information during database conversion of the new fields for adopted child dependent exemptions that will be added later throughout payroll processing.

This field will only be enabled if the withholding state is IN (Indiana).

If it applies to the selected state, enter the total number of credits that you wish to claim. The value entered cannot be less than zero or greater than the maximum number of credits allowed for each state.

If it applies to the selected state, you can enter an additional withholding amount here. Enter a specific dollar amount that you want your employer to withhold, in addition to the tax withheld based on your filing status and number of allowances. If you enter an amount, the system will display a confirmation message asking you to confirm the amount that you just entered.

• Age 65 or Over Exemptions: Enter the number of age 65 or over exemptions.
• Blindness Exemptions: Enter the number of blindness exemptions.
