    The Family and Medical Leave Act is primarily for unpaid leave, but there are other options to get paid will using FML. You can use: sick time, vacation time, personal time, or paid time off (PTO).

    The Form W-4 is used to calculate withholdings for federal. I am not aware of a special withholding form for the other "10 checks" for FML pay. The income is generally reported on your W-2 for state and federal purposes.

    If that happens again and his employer does not do withholding, you can make estimated payments online at the IRS.

    I just wanted to know is there a form to calculate the 10 checks of federal and state taxes that were not taken out.

    Not that I am aware of. Here is a link to the IRS Tax Tables. That may help. Here is a link to the IRS tax brackets.
