*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.
