In a community property state, the deduction is, generally, divided equally between you and your spouse.

When you file separately, you can also wave goodbye to a lot of the deductions and credits that the IRS offers. You lose the Hope and Lifetime learning credits that help offset the cost of higher education, and you also forgo the opportunity to deduct qualified education loan interest. Other out-the-window benefits include the dependent care credit, the adoption expense credit, and the deduction of savings bond interest that you might have used toward higher education.
Form W-4 is Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate. It's an IRS form that you fill out for your employer. Employers keep completed W-4 form with their employment tax records.Often the number of exemptions that you claim on Form W-4 won't be the same as on your tax return. The exemptions on Form W-4 are designed to help your employer deduct the correct withholding amounts from your earnings.Also, Form W-4 only offers two filing statuses (Single, Married Filing Jointly). But your federal tax return has five filing statuses: Single, Married Filing Jointly, Married Filing Separately, Head of Household, Qualifying Widow(er) with Dependent Child.In filling out your return, you choose your exemptions according to specified situations (a choice of five filing statuses, personal/dependent exemptions). So you don't match the number of exemptions on your tax return with the number on Form W-4.For more information, go to www.irs.gov/formspubs for Publication 501 (Exemptions, Standard Deduction, and Filing Information).
