The Voluntary Withholding Agreement serves as a formal arrangement where parties agree to withhold taxes from payments even when not legally required. This document type is particularly useful for independent contractors, pension recipients, or other payment scenarios where withholding isn't mandatory under U.S. law. The agreement helps recipients avoid the need for estimated tax payments and reduces their risk of tax underpayment penalties. It typically includes specific withholding percentages, payment schedules, and termination provisions, all in compliance with IRS regulations.
