Determine the Total Number Of Allowances field as follows:
<When a Form A-4 has not been filed, or an invalid status is found for an employee on the database, the employee's taxes will automatically be withheld at the higher 2.7%, regardless of his/her annual income. In order to elect a percentage less than or greater than 2.7%, employees must submit a Form A-4<. The employee can submit a Form A-4 for a minimum withholding of >1.3%< of the amount withheld for >state< income tax, if the annual wages are less than $15,000, or >1.8%< of the amount withheld for >state< income tax, if the annual wages are greater than or equal to $15,000. An employee required to have >1.3%< deducted may elect to increase this rate to >1.8%, 2.7%, 3.6%, 4.2%, or 5.1%< by submitting a Form A-4. An employee required to have >1.8%< may elect to increase this rate to >2.7%, 3.6%, 4.2%, or 5.1%.<by submitting a Form A-4.
The old rates will convert to the new Arizona state rates. Employees with an exempt status will remain the same.

Note
: Do not enter the decimal point when entering the percentage in the Total Number Of Allowances Claimed field. For Example: To enter >1.3< percent, type >013<.
If Block 3 is checked on Form A-4, enter 0NL. No tax will be withheld due to total exemption eligibility.
