By making an amount so low that you're exempt from taxation.

In most (if not all) places in the US and Canada, you are supposed to claim a common-law partner's income on your taxes. Check your state/provincial laws to find out what the minimum cohabitation time is to be considered common-law. If you are not common-law, then no, you should not claim your girlfriend's income. Also, check to make sure you have to claim their income, as filing separately will often benefit you more on your return (2 lower separate incomes often makes you look poorer than 1 low family income, and the government will give all your taxes back if your under a statutory minimum).
for best tax return claim 0 at work and when you file claim 1
There is no exemption from income taxes because of age. Being claimed as a dependent does not make your child exempt from taxes. Regardless of age or dependent status, if your child has sufficient income she must file her own tax return.To claim "exempt" on her W-4 at work, BOTH of the following statements must be true:1) She owed no taxes last year. All taxes that were withheld (if any) were refunded.2) She reasonably expects to owe no taxes this year.
Yes...Even 1 second of life in the year qualifies. Congratulations.
This will vary from place to place
If you claim 0 - you will be taxed the most. If you claim 1 (which is yourself) you will presumably be taxed the right amount and break even when tax time arrives. However, claiming exempt means that you are exempt from paying taxes and that would require you to be WELL below the poverty line, making little to no money at all. You would have to figure out what the amount of income is that allows one to be exempt, I don't know the figure. Many people suggest claiming 0 to be on the safe side and just get the money back from the government when you file taxes. Others say, claim 1 and don't allow the government to have a tax-free loan with your money! I would claim 1, see how much is withheld and look at a tax table to see what the amount of money is that should be withheld and determine if claiming 1 will get you there. If it won't, then you'll wind up owing and you don't want that, so then change it to 0 and you should be fine. As for exempt there are very few people who qualify for tax exempt status. Chances are, you're not one of them.
It takes about 1 to 2 weeks
