W-4 adjustments — optional

$2,000/year per child under 17 and $500/year per other dependent reduce federal withholding (floored at $0).

Professional details — optional

Post-tax deductions — optional

Only needed if this isn't your first stub of the year — enter your actual year-to-date gross and deduction YTDs scale proportionally.
