Exempt status may be claimed on a 2010 W-4 if two conditions exist:
1. You did not have a tax liability in the prior year and therefore received a refund of everything that was withheld, and
2. You expect to have not tax liability this year.
Caution: Having no tax liability is not the same as owing no tax. If your tax withholding was $1,000 last year and your tax liability was $400 then you owed no additional tax. You received a $600 refund. But your tax liability was $400.
No, not really. If you change the status on your W4 from Single to Married, less will be withheld from your paychecks for federal income taxes. There is no requirement that you make that change.

There are two reasons you may have no federal taxes taken is if you claim exempt on your W4 or if you claim a higher amount of dependents.
IRS Form W4.
A person can pick up a 2012 w4 form at a couple of different location depending on where the person lives, such as the local library or the city hall as well.
If you go to your local government office there are employees there that will be more than happy to show you how to fill out a W4 form. When you pick up your W4 form there is also an instruction manual that will walk you through the proper steps for filling out the form.

The W$ form is your request for the withholding of taxes from pay. The W2 is a statement of wages paid and taxes withheld.
You will need to submit a I-9, a state and local W4, and a Federal W4.
