Announcements

Amended state income tax withholding brackets (Effective 5/1/09)
Please be advised that the State of Arizona has amended state income tax withholding brackets in response to the federal economic stimulus bill decrease in federal tax withholding. The corresponding tax bracket changes are as follows:

Previous State
Income Tax Bracket
Revised State
Income Tax Bracket
10% 11.50%
19% 21.90%
23% 26.50%
25% 28.80%
31% 35.70%
37% 42.60%

The payroll system will automatically change your state income tax percentages to the next highest rate. For example, if you are claiming 23% in state income tax withholding you will be automatically shifted to the 26.5% state income tax withholding bracket. This shift will definitely result in a decrease in your take home pay. Please consult with your tax advisor to ensure that your state income tax withholding election properly reflects your individual tax status.

If you would like to make changes to your state income tax withholding, please submit a revised A-4 through Employee Link. Click on Online Services --> Tax Forms Online --> Arizona Form A-4 (2009)

These changes will take affect on the pay check you will receive on Friday 5/8/09.

Please be informed that the Payroll department is not allowed to provide any tax advice.
