How many exemptions can I have on my W-4?

Your employer would withhold 25% for federal income tax purposes if the bonus was paid at a separate time as your regular wages.\n\nHowever, if your employer pays the bonus at the same time as your regular wages it would be based on your W-4 Form.  As of last year, IRS recently stated that they would not require an employer to submit the W-4 Form into the Service if more than 10 exemptions are claimed.  However, if IRS finds at the time you file your income tax return your withholding from your W-4 Form is not enough, they can notify your employer to change your withholding exemptions on your Form W-4.  \n\nTo conclude, first find out when the bonus payment is being made.  If the employer is going to withhold at a flat 25%, then changing your Form W-4 will make no difference.  On the other hand, you may want to change the W-4 Form before the bonus payment is made along with regular wages keeping sure that you send it with plenty of time for the payroll department records your changed exemptions before the wage payment.  You may want to change after the payment though so that you are not being withheld at a lower rate for the remainder of the year.  \n\nAnd, congrats on your bonus!!

It depends your exemptions, filing status (single, married, ect) and your gross income (amount before taxes).\n  You can check online at the website for the IRS.  In the search type in Circular E.  The circular E has charts where you can find information based on your income, how many dependents you are claiming, and your filing status.  There you will see exactally how much they will take out of your paycheck depending how many exemptions you are claiming.\n  Your withholding is the only thing that will change.  Your social security and medicare do not change.\n\nI hope that my answer was helpful.

i think the word youre looking for is "exemptions", the more exemptions you have the less taxes will be withheld from your salary, and the higher the net check will be.  you fill out this info on the form w-4 when you start a job.  if you feel that they are taking too much/too little out you can change this with your human resources dept.\nalso if you do have dependants this will help reduce your taxes, but do not make up imaginary children b/c you will get caught.

Below is a link to the IRS web site that has the federal withholding. Your state probably has the same thing available on-line.\n\nYou may also want to look at a payroll service. Even if you only have a few employees, the extra cost might be worth it.

It depends on your tax bracket and the number of deductions that you claimed on your W-4, if applicable.  If you're an independent contractor with a 1099, then nothing.  A normal W-2, 20-40%, depending on the things above.

Go to IN.GOV It looks like you might if you are single with no dependents. Look under individual when you get to the web site. Then requirement to file. It tells you what the exemption amount is.

Obtain a W-4 from your employer.  When filing your tax return, you don't need a special or new form if ou are adding a depenant this year.  You just include them on your usual forms.

If you are referring to your W-4 form that you fill out and return to your employer, they are called "withholding allowances", and like most other said, you should be VERY safe claiming 3...one for each person you support including yourself.  You should also enter "Married".\n\nHowever, doing the simple worksheet attached to the form is a wonderful idea.  It will probably have you claim more like 5 or 6.  Why?  Well, depending on your income, you could get certain credits which lower your tax liability.  If you want more now and less when you file your return, you may want to choose a higher withholding allowance.  If you don't need the money now and want a higher refund, choose 3.

A company is required to get an employees w-2's in the mail by January 31.  I am not aware of any extensions.  You would be better served by checking on the IRS web page.

First, you are never your spouses dependent.  If you file a joint return, you claim personal exemptions for both of you.  This results in the same number of exemptions as if you were a dependent.\n\nYou list a total income of $27,000\nThe standard deduction for Married filing jointly is $10,300\n4 personal exemptions @ $3,300 each = $13,200\nTaxable income: $3,500\nTax @ 10% = $350\n\nWithout knowing how much was withheld, I can't determine your refund.\n\nNOTE:  any information you did not include in you question could change the answer.  I did not account for an earned income credit or child care credit.

Theoretically, if you properly fill out the worksheet on a W-4 (Withholding Certificate), the exact amount of tax--no more and no less--will be deducted.  However, it never works out that way.\n\nIf you're concerned about underpaying your taxes, you can file a form 1040ES, Estimated Tax.  It helps you determine what you expect to earn in the coming year to more accurately estimate your tax liability.  While this form is most often used by individuals running their own business, it is something to consider.\n\nAs for your state, it would depend on the one in which you live.

None, the W-2 and W-4 are IRS forms and standard for every state, since the IRS is a Federal Agency.

No penalty for not including the W-2 form. Since you will be including the income on your income tax return - the IRS will be able to easily reconcile this information when you submit the return.  You can always provide a substitute W-2 form and include the employer information based on the last paycheck that you received.

The answer to this depends on what exemptions you have put on you W-4.  For Single with zero exemptions, federal tax would be taken out at $11 per paycheck.  You may also be paying 6.2% ($13.27) for social security and 1.45% ($3.10) for medicare.\n\nThese numbers are based on the $214 being your gross salary.

Well, hopefully you stay married, keep each other happy and have kids. Legally it allows you to file your taxes together. If you put single on your W4 (the witholding form for your employer) it will withhold more taxes, and then when you file your taxes together, you have a good chance for a nice sized refund.

If you are earning more than $400.00 from being a nanny, you have to claim it and pay self employment tax on it. You will report this using schedule C and Schedule SE in addition to your regular 1040.

Not necessarily. If you had no withholding for 4 months, but have worked enough to have earned in excess of $8450 by the end of the year (if you are single), then the question is how much will you owe in taxes versus how much gets withheld by the end of the year.  If you project your earnings and calculate the tax that will be due and compare it to your withholding and you come up short, you can file a new W-4 form and request extra withholding from your remaining checks to make up the difference.  The IRS treats amounts withheld as if the money were paid in evenly over the whole year. In this way, if you make up any shortfall in withholding before 12/31, you can legally avoid any penalties or interest for under withholding.
