If you are currently employed in the United States then you will more than likely be required to pay some sort of tax that will come out of your paycheck before you even see it.

The amount of the withholding will vary from state to state but should be available for you to view at any time either by internet or a publication issued by your state. The tax tables will show you how much will be deducted from each paycheck depending on how much your check is and the amount that was withheld.

Forms

Just like with your W-4 for federal withholding, you will be required to fill out a state withholding form. This form will also ask you for your filing status.

You may also take the option of having additional funds taken out of each paycheck to ensure that you will not owe at the end of the year.
