# IRS Offers Resources to Understand Tax Reform

The IRS released a tax tip reminding employers about online resources available to help them understand the tax law changes made by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA; Pub. L. 115-97) \[[**IRS Tax Reform Tax Tip 2018-119**](https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/business-owners-can-visit-irsgov-for-resources-to-help-understand-tax-reform), 8-2-18\].

 

### Employer resources

Here are some of the resources that can help employers understand the TCJA:

- **[**Tax Reform webpage**](https://www.irs.gov/tax-reform).** This webpage highlights information all taxpayers need to know about the tax law changes and how these changes affect them. The webpage includes links to tax reform information for [**businesses**](https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/businesses), such as changes to withholding and the new employer tax credit for paid family and medical leave. A sidebar menu includes links to tax reform news, guidance, forms and instructions, and resources.
- **FAQs.** The IRS created frequently asked questions (FAQs) on several tax reform topics: how to use the [**withholding calculator**](https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/withholding-calculator-frequently-asked-questions); changes to [**withholding tables**](https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-withholding-tables-frequently-asked-questions); and the new [**employer credit**](https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/section-45s-employer-credit-for-paid-family-and-medical-leave-faqs) for paid family and medical leave.
- **Tax Tips.** Employers can [**subscribe**](https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/subscribe-to-irs-tax-tips) to receive emails from the IRS about tax reform topics.

 

### Employee resources

Here are a few resources employers can pass on to employees with questions about the TCJA:

- **[**Withholding calculator**](https://www.irs.gov/individuals/irs-withholding-calculator).** The IRS encourages employees to use its withholding calculator to perform a Paycheck Checkup.
- [**2018 Form W-4**](https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw4.pdf), *Employee’s Withholding Allowance Certificate*. Employees who determine they need to make changes to their withholding can complete a revised Form W-4 and submit it to their employers.
