Your withholding is completely based upon what you tell your employer. This is different in every state; however most states require your federal and state withholding to be the same, while others will automatically require a deduction based on your withholding (i.e. if you are married with no children you will have a withholding status of 2 dependents). In rare cases states will withhold for 1 dependant and only count you. I know this is hard to believe but the best tax return is $0.00; I know most people think it is best to receive money back; however no matter what you will be paying the taxes owed one way or another. So why treat the government as a savings account? You earn no interest by paying more taxes than necessary, ensure you have withholding justifiable to your household size, 1 per person that lives in your house.

I think if chapter 13 has been contemplated then for withholding status discussion with attorney becomes important.

Ideally in this situation tax return will displayed partially or with no returns or may be no tax debt.


What tax form do you use to claim allowable exemptions?

Form W-4 is Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate. It's an IRS form that your employer gives you to complete for the employer's records. Allowable exemptions are the number of personal, dependable, and other exemptions that you claim on Form W-4. Your employer refers to the number of exemptions and your filing status to calculate income tax withholding from your earnings.For more information, go to www.irs.gov/taxtopics. Select Topic 753: Form W-4 Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate.Also go to the Forms and Publications screen, www.irs.gov/formspubs. Select Publication Number to view/print Publication 505: Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax and Publication 919: How Do I Adjust My Tax Withholding?


What is the purpose of withholding declaration forms?

Form W-4 is Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate. You fill out form W-4 for your employer to indicate your filing status and number of exemptions. Your employer figures the amount of taxes to be withheld (income, Medicare, Social Security) from your earnings based on your filing status and number of exemptions. The purpose of Form W-4 is to make your withholdings as accurate as possible. In this way, you won't have a large tax due balance on your tax return.

How can I tell if I will owe taxes if I have 3 jobs to file?

Sometimes taxpayers with more than one job don't have enough income tax withheld by their employers. The filing requirement for Single under age 65 for 2009 is earned income of at least $9,350. The Single standard deduction of $5,700 plus the Single personal exemption of $3,650 total $9,350, which zeroes out that amount. Any amount that you have above $9,350 is taxable. Depending on the amount of tax withheld from your three jobs, you either will owe or will receive a refund. You also might reduce your tax by certain credits, such as earned income. If you're working more than one job and you owe a significant amount of tax on your tax return, you should adjust your withholding with your employer.

How do you file taxes when taxes were not with held?

You file taxes just as you normally would. The only problem is that you may end up having to pay the IRS a large tax bill after you file. When you're entering the information from your W-2 or 1099, you will just leave blank the sections where it asks you for the amount of tax that was withheld from your wages, as those boxes will be blank on the forms you receive from your employer. Unless you are exempt from withholding, it's a good idea to have money withheld from your paychecks. Your withholding for the year should more or less equal your tax liability. You can adjust your withholding by adjusting the number of allowances you claim.

How does the W-2 form work and what are the best choices to make on it in order to get the most money in the long run?

Form W-2 is Wage and Tax Statement. It's often confused with Form W-4 Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate. You can claim whatever exemptions (personal, dependent) that you're eligible for. If you're expecting tax credits (child/dependent care expenses, child tax, etc.) or earned income credit to lower or eliminate your tax or to give you a large refund, you can adjust your exemptions. You can claim 0 exemptions if you want more withheld, which usually means you'll receive a larger refund. Your employer calculates withholding based upon your W-4 form.
