Procedures for using the Simplified Merhod can be found in Intemal Revenue Service Publication 575, "Pension and Annuity Income." The service retirement benefit you receive may result in taxable income. The Intemal Revenue code provides that member contributions paid by the employer were non-taxable at the time they were paid. However, these employer-paid contributions (tax deferred contdbutions) become taxable when they are paid out as a monthly benefit. we are required to withhold state and federal income taxes from your monthly benefit unless you instruct us otherwise. The withholding amounts indicated on your warrant stub reflect the instructions specified by you on the Income Tax withholding preference certificate that you submitted. If no specification was made, the standard withholding rate, married with three exemptions, provided by the tax laws was used. Benefit recipients who live outside Califomia will not have state tax withheld, unless requested by filing an AD 0908. Ifyou need assistance in computing your taxes, you may wish to contact the Internal Revenue Service and the Califomia State Franchise Tax Board, or your attorney or tax consultant.
