New W-4s rejects any state withholding allowances that are different in number from Federal allowanc
We noticed that in new W-4s there is a system rule in place which rejects any state withholding allowances that are different in number from Federal allowances. Can you help us understand this limitation ?
Especially since tax reform, the federal and state calculations are essentially unrelated. In order to achieve the correct withholding for the year, likely most folks would need a different number of allowances for federal purposes and state purposes
