FYI as someone who has filled out that form many times as "exempt" I can say no one has ever asked any questions about it. If they did, I'd probably tell them it's none of their business- I'm the one committing the crime if what I'm signing isn't true, and at no point in submitting it are you asked to prove youre exempt (until you file your 1040 the next year, if you file one)

But it's also pretty hard to argue later you must have just "done the math wrong" ’cause there's a whole separate section for declaring youre exempt.

They also still take out social security and medicare.
