Who would have more federal income tax withheld from emploee's paycheck with allowances?

An employee who claims fewer allowances on their W-4 form will have more federal income tax withheld from their paycheck. This is because fewer allowances indicate a higher tax liability, leading the employer to withhold a larger portion of the paycheck for taxes. Conversely, an employee who claims more allowances will have less tax withheld, reflecting a lower tax obligation. Therefore, the number of allowances directly affects the amount of federal income tax withheld.


What is a form of W-2?

A form W-2 is the information form that you get from any employers that you had during a calendar year. You will receive one from each job you had during the year. The form shows your gross income as well as all taxes that were withheld from your income for social security tax, medicare tax, federal income tax, and any state and local income tax. The amount of income taxes withheld will be a credit against your income tax computed on your tax returns and you may get a refund if you had more withheld than you owed or you may owe additional taxes if you did not have enough withheld to cover the amount of your total tax due.

Do you still have to report your distribution if they already withheld tax on it?

Absolutely...more than ever in fact! The withholding is only done as an estimate of the tax due...and generally is more than enough to protect the Gov't from the actual tax that will be determined by the filing of the return. Hence, you need to include the distribution and reflect the credit for the amount of tax already paid (the withheld amount) and will likely get a refund.


What two numbers do i add together to find out my tax return?

You seem really lost. Do you mean tax REFUND? If that's what you're looking for you need to SUBTRACT the tax you owe from the taxes you have had withheld over the calendar year. Of course, if the tax you owe is larger than the taxes you have had withheld, you need to send more money to the IRS and maybe even pay a penalty charge.

Income tax withheld from each paycheckand sent to the state or federal government?

You do NOT have any amount that is withheld from your net take home paycheck after it is issued to you. The amount that is withheld is calculated on your gross earnings for the pay period and is a advance payment of your possible future income tax liability. After your income tax return is completed correctly and IF the amount that is withheld is more than your federal or state income liability then you will receive a refund of the over withheld amount.

Do you receive a refund of state income tax withheld at year end if you live in a state that doesn't have state income tax?

If you live in a state that doesn't have state income tax, you typically do not pay state income tax, so there would be no state income tax withheld from your paychecks. As a result, you would not receive a refund at year-end because there would be no withholding to refund. However, if you mistakenly had state income tax withheld due to an error, you could file to reclaim that amount.
