Florida Unemployment Appeal?

Florida unemployment takes taxes out of my unemployment check. Can get my full unemployment check?

• Florida Unemployment says I qualify for $265 per week. They tax that... I was talking to someone in my class and they said that if you call and ask you can get your whole check with out taxes being removed. I called the guy sounded like he hated his life and kept telling me to go to the website. I looked around www.fluidnow.com and i could find where or how to do it. any help would be appreciated.

• Answer:

  If your total income for the year is enough that you end up owing any tax, it will be good to have had some withheld so you don't have to pay in when you file. If you do NOT make enough to owe any tax for the year, you'll get back all that was withheld. But yes, you can have them stop taking tax out. From the FL website: . How do I obtain a copy of the Form W-4V to request that withholding tax be deducted from my benefits or to stop having withholding tax deducted from my benefits? The Form W-4V, Income Tax Withholding Change Form, is on page 15 of the Unemployment Compensation Program Booklet that you received when you filed your claim. Instructions for completing the form are printed on the form. The form is also available on the Internet site www.fluidnow.com. You select “Unemployment Compensation Forms” then select “Claims and Appeals Forms” and then select “Income Tax Withholding Change Form.” Instructions for completing the form are printed on the form. The completed form must be mailed or faxed to the address below: Agency for Workforce Innovation P.O.
