Understanding URLs for IRS Form W-4 Setup

Within the employee self-service benefit programs, including the IRS Form W-4, Employee's Withholding Allowance for ESS program (P085303A), employees can click an optional link to get information directly from the IRS. You can provide separate links to desired resource Web sites. The current values for these links are as follows:

• http://www.irs.gov/

• http://www.irs.gov/formspubs/index.html

If UDC codes do not already exist for the URL descriptions, they can be added to UDC 08/UT. These values are suggested:

New Y/N	Value	Description	Description 2	Hard Coded Y/N	Special Handling Code
Y	IRS	I.R.S. Homepage	Blank	Y	Blank
Y	IRF	I.R.S. Forms	Blank	Y	Blank
Y	IRP	I.R.S. Publications	Blank	Y	Blank

You use the Benefits Enrollment Plan/Option URL Address program (P085540) to assign the URL addresses. Although the URL specifications can potentially be implemented from more than one of the benefits setup programs, we recommend that you use the Categories By Benefit Group program (P08350) to assign URL addresses for the IRS website.
