## How to fill out the W-4 here

1. Press “Fill out the W-4 here” at the top of this page. The IRS’s PDF opens in the editor with its fillable boxes in pale blue.
2. In Step 1, type your name, address and Social Security number, and tick one filing status box.
3. The form tells you to complete Steps 2 to 4 only if they apply to you, and otherwise to skip to Step 5. For what goes in each step, follow [how to fill out a W-4](https://fairfillpdf.com/guides/how-to-fill-out-a-w-4/).
4. The form says it is not valid unless you sign it. To sign Step 5 on screen, choose Sign and click the signature line, then choose Date and click next to “Date”. Sign on screen only if your employer accepts a signed PDF. If not, print the W-4 after you download it and sign it with a pen.
5. The “Employers Only” section is for your employer.
6. Press Download, then “Pay $1.99 and download”. After you pay on Stripe’s card page, press “Save your PDF”.
7. Give the W-4 to your employer. The form says “Give Form W-4 to your employer.” We don’t send it anywhere.

## Signing the W-4

The IRS rules on electronic W-4s are in [can you sign a W-4 electronically](https://fairfillpdf.com/guides/how-to-fill-out-a-w-4/). A signature you add here is a picture on the signature line, with no identity check or audit trail.

## What it costs, and where your W-4 stays

The W-4 is free from the IRS. Filling it in here costs $1.99, paid once when you download. That payment covers every download for 24 hours, so you can fix a typo and download again without paying more. Nothing renews, and there is no account to make.

What you type stays on your device, in this browser while you work and in the PDF you download. It is never sent to us. If you close the tab, your W-4 stays in this browser for 24 hours after your last change. Press “Fill out the W-4 here” again to carry on.

## Questions

### Is this the official IRS Form W-4?

Yes. It is the IRS’s own PDF, 2026, copied from irs.gov. We last checked it against irs.gov on November 12, 2026.

### Is the fillable W-4 free?

The form is free from the IRS. Typing into it and downloading it here costs $1.99, paid once when you download.

### Will my W-4 still be fillable after I download it?

Yes. The form’s boxes stay fillable, with your answers in them, unless you tick “Lock the form’s answers” when you download. That option locks the form’s own boxes, so your answers in them become part of the page. A page where you used Blackout is saved as a picture, so its boxes stop being fillable.

### Can I fill out a W-4 on my phone?

Yes. Open this page in your phone’s browser, tap “Fill out the W-4 here”, then tap a box to type.

### Is my Social Security number uploaded?

No. The form is filled in inside your browser, and what you type is never sent to us. Our server receives only the reference of your Stripe payment.
