The number of allowances you should claim on your taxes depends on your personal situation. It's important to consider factors like your income, marital status, and number of dependents. It's recommended to use the IRS withholding calculator or consult a tax professional to determine the right amount of allowances for your specific circumstances.

How much should I claim in withholdings on my taxes?

If you claim 1 on your taxes does that mean just yourself or one other person?

That depends on which form you are claiming it on. If you are talking about Form 1040, that means just yourself. If you are not eligible to claim yourself, then you are not eligible to claim anyone else either. If you are talking about Form W-4 (the withholding form that you give to your employer), stop and read the form more carefully. It does NOT ask you to fill in the number of people (dependents) you are claiming. It asks you to fill in the number of withholding allowances you are claiming. Most people have way too much tax taken out of their paychecks because they mistakenly believe that the number of withholding allowances they claim on their W-4 should be the same as the number of exemptions they claim on their 1040. Most people should claim MORE withholding allowances. To calculate the number of withholding allowances you should claim, either use the worksheet in the Form W-4 instructions or use the IRS withholding calculator here: http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96196,00.html

When filling out a w-2 what is the difference between declaring 2 or 3 dependents?

I think you mean a W-4, not a W-2. For reference, here is a copy of Form W-4 to look at as you read this answer: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw4.pdf The first thing you must realize is that Form W-4 does NOT ask you to declare dependents. Look at line 5. It says "Total number of allowances you are claiming." Note the word "allowances." Allowances are different than dependents. The only place it asks you to enter the number of dependents is on line D of the "Personal Allowances Worksheet" which is used to calculate the number of allowances you should claim, but is not given to your employer. You should truthfully use the number of dependents that you will actually claim on Line D. When you fill out the part of Form W-4 that you will give to your employer, you fill in the number of allowances you are claiming on line 5. Unless you have a lot of income from some source other than your job, this should be larger than the number of dependents you have. The larger the number of allowances, the less tax will be taken out of your paycheck. If you choose three allowances instead of two, you will get a larger paycheck every week, but you will get a smaller refund at the end of the year. In other words, you won't have to wait a whole year to get your money and you won't have to pay for a rapid refund loan or e-filing to get your money faster. If you want to see exactly how much money will get taken out of your check for taxes based on different numbers of allowances, use this calculator: http://www.paycheckcity.com/NetPayCalc/netpaycalculator.asp


How much has Obama raised taxes?

Actually, most objective sources say he has cut taxes, especially for small businesses and working families. His political opponents claim he raised taxes on everyone, but there is not much evidence to support this claim. In late 2011, the fact-checking site Politifact.com said President Obama's assertion that he had lowered taxes for the middle class was true.
