Hawaii

HW-6 years present mapping corrected

Form Title: Employee's Statement To Employer Concerning Nonresidence In The State Of Hawaii

Form ID: HI103

Form version: 2025.01.0

Line 6 of this form indicates the number of years the employee was physically present in Hawaii during the calendar years 2021 through 2025. We have corrected an issue where the days present per year was mapping to the incorrect year on the form (the days entered for 2021 was mapping to 2022, the days present for 2022 was mapping to 2023, and so on). The days present will now accurately map to the proper year, as entered by the employee.

Louisiana

L-4 tax parameter value updated

Form Title: Employee's Withholding Certificate

Form ID: LA101

Form version: 2025.01.0

We have implemented a value change to the tax parameter LA.filingStatus  on the L-4 (LA101). The form begins with a survey question which asks the user to select 0, 1, or 2 deductions. The value returned for this tax parameter varies based on the deduction value. Previously, the values were:

• 0 deductions; value of "0" returned
• 1 deduction; value of "S" returned
• 2 deductions; value of "M" returned

As of this release, the value returned for 2 deductions for the tax parameter  LA.filingStatus  will reflect "MFJ" instead of "M" (to accurately represent 'Married filing jointly or qualifying surviving spouse or head of household').  Now, the values will be:

• 0 deductions; value of "0" returned
• 1 deduction; value of "S" returned
• 2 deductions; value of "MFJ" returned

LA101 tax parameter regex and description updated.

• Previous regex: "^(0|S|M)$"
• Previous description: "0 - filed 'No deduction',S - filed ' Single or married filing separately',M - filed 'Married filing jointly or qualifying surviving spouse or head of household'"
• Updated regex: "^(0|S|MFJ)$"
• Updated description: "0 - filed 'No deduction',S - filed ' Single or married filing separately',MFJ - filed 'Married filing jointly or qualifying surviving spouse or head of household'"

Montana

Form MW-4 perjury statement updated

Form Title: Montana Employee's Withholding Allowance and Exemption Certificate

Form ID: MT101

Form version: 2025.12.0

We have updated the perjury statement for Form MW-4 to correctly reflect the state of Montana. Previously, the perjury statement indicated the state of Missouri.

New York

IT-2104 regular expression corrected

Form Title: Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate

Form ID: NY101

Form version: 2024.12.0

Previously we updated the validation regex for Line 1 and Line 2 on the Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate. The regular expression has now been updated to correctly support values 0-99 in alignment with the fillable PDF provided directly by New York State. Previously, we accepted values up to 100.

• Old regular expression value: "^([1-9][0-9]{0,1}|0|100)$"
• New regular expression value: "^([1-9][0-9]{0,1}|0|99)$"

These fields are shown on the Additional Allowances survey.

Virginia

Form VA-4 perjury statement updated

Form Title: Employee's Income Tax Withholding Exemption Certificate

Form ID: VA101

Form version: 2011.2.0

In the use case of the employee being subject to Virginia withholding, the resulting perjury statement when the form VA-4 was filled out stated "I certify that I am not subject to Virginia withholding. I meet the conditions set forth in the instructions."

We have corrected the perjury statement to reflect the individual is subject to withholding. The updated perjury statement in this case is as follows: "I certify that I am subject to Virginia withholding. I meet the conditions set forth in the instructions.

Miscellaneous

Additional Withholding validation correction

We've corrected a validation issue for the additional withholding field which impacted some forms. In the case of no additional withholding elected, the validation on impacted forms allowed $0.0 to pass, while the tax parameter value accepted $0.00. This resulted in an issue being able to submit the form. The validation has been corrected to align with the tax parameter.

Message added when all forms excluded

If all applicable forms are specifically excluded, we previously displayed a spinning icon that did not resolve. This has been updated to show the following message to the user instead: There are no forms to complete. Please contact your administrator for help.
