Hello,
I just moved to the DC and got a new job at the federal government. I was asked to fill out my W4 form and my tax form for DC. I doing so, I was not sure how to respond to the question of whether I’m exempt from tax withholding both at the federal level and at DC. Could anyone please help me answer this question.
Thanks

Regarding DC, "every new employee who resides in DC and is required to have DC income tax withheld, must fill out Form D-4 and file it with his/her employer."

Congrats on your move and a new job in DC, it is highly likely that you are not exempt, and need to fill out a W-4 form for both Federal and DC .
Hope the above helps. Thank you.
