  • Your mailing address is used for the distribution of your Form W-2 in January, for your tax filing purposes.
  • Your W-4 elections determine the calculation of federal income tax withholding from your paychecks.
  • Your direct deposit account information directs where the net pay from your paycheck is deposited each pay day.
  • Your social security number is used to report your wages and taxes as required by various federal and state agencies.
