If you have not communicated to Reliant on your W4 that you are exempt from federal tax withholdings, due to Foreign Earned Income Exclusion or the Foreign Tax Credit, a large one-time payment on your paycheck will usually inflate your tax withholdings to a higher percentage than is usually withheld, affecting not just the Bonus, but your normal monthly salary. For example, if your normal salary is $3,000, and you submit an Bonus for $10,000, you could be taxed on that paycheck as if you earn $156,000/year (13,000x12). You may request a one-time adjustment to your withholdings to control the amount that is withheld. See the instructions below and please talk to a tax professional if you have questions about how much you should be withholding. In the case that an employee wants to make a one-time Federal tax change to a certain paycheck (without making a permanent change to their federal withholdings), the employee may send an email to payroll@reliant.org before last day of any given month in order to affect the following month's paycheck. The email should be from the employee's @reliant.org email account and must clearly state how much money the employee would like withheld for the specific pay date. For example, an employee could send an email stating "From my XX/XX/XXXX (Month/Day/Year) paycheck, please withhold $X (specify the dollar amount) in Federal taxes". If you are unsure what is currently being withheld, please refer to your most recent paystub, which should have been emailed to your Reliant email address on payday. Please keep in mind, even if you are exempt from federal income tax, you will still be required to pay Social Security (FICA) on any International Bonus. If you are not ordained, 7.65% will be paid from the MTD fund for the Employer Portion, in addition to the total amount of the bonus.
