This withholding is typically calculated based on the employee's income level and filing status, using a tax table or withholding formula provided by the IRS. The withheld amount is then sent to the government on behalf of the employee, ultimately contributing to their annual tax liability.

An employee who claims fewer allowances on their W-4 form will have more federal income tax withheld from their paycheck. This is because fewer allowances indicate a higher tax liability, leading the employer to withhold a larger portion of the paycheck for taxes. Conversely, an employee who claims more allowances will have less tax withheld, reflecting a lower tax obligation. Therefore, the number of allowances directly affects the amount of federal income tax withheld.
