Which form is used to request payroll deductions for union dues?

• A. G-725
• B. INA 245
• C. SF-1187
• D. SF-1188

Answer: (D)

Form SF-1188 is the one used to request payroll deductions for union dues. Its purpose is to authorize the payroll system to withhold a specified amount from each paycheck to be sent to the designated union. It collects the employee’s identifying information, the union name, the deduction amount or rate, the start date, and the employee’s signature to confirm consent. Once the payroll office processes this authorization, the deduction begins in the chosen pay period and continues until the employee revokes or changes the arrangement with a new form. The other options don't serve this specific purpose of initiating union dues deductions, so SF-1188 is the appropriate form.
