Withholding variation applications
Your payees should use the following forms when they want to vary the amount you are required to withhold from a withholding payment. The main purpose of varying their rate or amount of withholding is to make sure the amounts withheld during the income year best meet their end-of-year tax liability. An example is where the normal rate or amount of withholding would lead to a large credit at the end of the income year because their tax deductible expenses are higher than normal.
