rockinpunkin | How to fill out W4 form (I'm single)? |
I'm single, 29 years old, and will be making $63,000/year. I have been getting a variety of responses from friends and family so I'm getting confused as to what is appropriate. Do I enter "1" for both A and B or just A or just B? (Most people have told me to enter "1" for B only).
A) Enter "1" for yourself if no one else can claim you as a dependent
B) Enter “1” if:
● You are single and have only one job; or
● You are married, have only one job, and your spouse does not work; or B
● Your wages from a second job or your spouse’s wages (or the total of both) are $1,000 or less.
Additional Details
In the past I did standardized deductions.
I'll be starting my new job in late Oct.
Does anyone else recommend claiming 0? |

Enter 1 total. If you want to be sure that you don't owe any taxes and will receive a refund then put 0. |

do you itemise or take standard deduction?
If Standard, Single 1 will give you a small refund
Single 2 will break you even or you will owe a small amount |

By the worksheet, yes you could claim two. If you do, you'll come pretty close to even but might owe a little. If you claim one you'll most likely get a small refund.
I wouldn't recommend claiming zero. You'd get a bigger refund, but only because you had more withheld, so you've just let the government use your money all year at no interest. |

The w-4 worksheet is antiquated and is confusing.
The IRS has a withholding calculator, where you can put in all your numbers and come very close to your taxable amount for the end of the year, and print out your W-4
www.irs.gov, individual, withholding calculator |

If you want a large refund on your taxes claim single and "0"
If you want a small refund and little bit bigger paycheck claim single and "1" |

You can claim one exemption for every $3400 in deductions (itemized deductions or standard deduction + personal exempton) that you plan on having regardless of your income. |

yes 1 & 1 and you might have a couple of other 1's also |

You'd only be claiming 1 on your W-4. But considering we don't know whether you itemize or claim the standard deduction we can't really tell you what to claim on W-4. www.paycheckcity.com though is a good paycheck calculator website that can help you determine what you should be claiming. |

IGNORE the worksheet AND all the rules of thumb you get here. Use the withholding calculator on the IRS website. |
