File your income tax return correctly for the past year and fill out a new W-4 form for the new year that is going on and try to make sure that it does not happen again in the future years to come. You can fill out a new W-4 form any time that you think it may be necessary to make that you have the correct amount of income taxes withheld.

The IRS has a useful tool available for this purpose called the IRS Withholding Calculator. Go to www.irs.gov choose Individual and then scroll down page and choose IRS Withholding Calculator.

You can use the search box at www.irs.gov and type IRS Withholding Calculator

This easy to use calculator can help you figure your Federal income tax withholding so your employer can withhold the correct amount from your pay. This is particularly helpful if you've had too much or too little withheld in the past, your situation has changed, or you are starting a new job.

What makes you think the "wrong" amount was withheld? Did you specifically tell him,and authorize it by filing the W-4 correctly, exactly how much to withhold? If not, presumably he withheld how much your W-4 instructed...which can come to several different, but similar results, depending on which of the many methods his system uses to calculate the certain aspects. He is NOT responsible to determine how much tax YOU wanted, or needed, to have withheld. YOU direct it by YOUR W4.

What can you do if your employer taxed your pay wrong?

Well the first thing I would do is tell your employer and see what happens. The next I would pay my tax accountant a visit or telephone him/him or her. If you don't the taxation department will want payment so scales have to be set depending on your earnings.

What happens when personal and business taxes are reduced?

People and businesses pay less taxes.Government deficits and borrowing grow.Sometimes the extra money that people and businesses have is spent, sometimes it is invested. When the money is spent, it generates additional sales and property taxes. When it is invested it can generate additional income which can result in additional taxes.Whether the additional taxes generated by the additional spending or investment are more or less than the amount that the taxes were reduced by is a very controversial issue. Under the right total combination of circumstances, the additional economic activity can generate more taxes and more than make up for the reduced taxes. Under the wrong combination, it can cause deficits, infrastructure neglect, increased government borrowing and a general economic downturn. You can never predict the future of the economy by looking at just one factor.


What is IRS tax?

The IRS is the Internal Revenue Service. It is an agency inside the United States Department of the Treasury that is in charge of administering the tax laws of the United States. Since the IRS is in charge of collecting federal taxes, some people refer to federal taxes as IRS taxes. While this is not strictly wrong, it sounds ignorant.

How do you find out if your employer is taking the right taxes from your income?

Well, the "right" amount is what YOU instruct by your W-4. If you need more taken out because of your personal tax situation, simply change your instructions. It makes no difference to him...he doesn't get to keep any. And if it is wrong...then you either get the extra back when you file or pay the extra then. What he withholds makes no difference to the amount of tax you ultimately have to pay. It is your responsibilty or liability to make sure it is what YOU want.
