   IF LESS THAN ZERO, SEE SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS 
   BELOW*. Report this number of allowances on 
   Form W-4 and indicate “For Delaware Purposes Only” 
   to your employer. 

I. *SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS:          If the total on Line 10 is less than zero you will need additional 
   withholding as a result of non-wage income. You can calculate the amount of additional
   withholding as follows: 

   (1) Multiply number on Line 10 by $110; 

   (2) Divide the result by the number of pay periods 
   during the year (e.g. if you are paid monthly, 
   divide by 12); The result is the additional amount 
   of withholding required per pay. 

EXAMPLE: Total on Line 10 is “-2” and you are paid once a month. 

   (1) Line H = 2 x $110 = $220.00

   (2) Number of pay periods = $220.00/12 = $18.33 

You should notify your employer on a “ For Delaware Purposes Only ” W-4 that withholding 
allowance should be “0” and an additional $18.33 per pay should be withheld for the current year.
