To assist with the implementation of the new Arizona A-4, the document Questions and Answers for New Arizona Form A-4 (2023) - Changes to Arizona Income Tax Withholding was created to answer frequently asked questions.

The Arizona Department of Revenue (AZDOR) announced on November 1, 2022, Arizona’s Employees Have New Tax Withholding Options. An updated version of Arizona's Individual Income Withholding Form (Arizona Form A-4) reflecting the lower rates was also published. Since the Arizona tax rates are lower, the AZDOR is requiring all individuals to complete a new Form A-4 for 2023. Employees have two options to complete the new Arizona Form A-4 that is required by law for wages paid after January 1, 2023. State employees on the HRIS payroll system can submit an Arizona Form A-4 on paper to their agency payroll office or electronically via the Y.E.S. website. Current employees who fail to make the required A-4 election will be set at the new default rate of 2.0% which may not be the appropriate option for their specific situation.

GAO has modified a Statewide reports as part of our report right-sizing efforts.
