I have a question.
Last year in Sept I got married. Prior to that I always got a refund, nothing huge, but between $500 and $1500.
So last year I also bought a house with the new wife.
She has student loan interest, we now have mortgage interest.
So when I got my W-2's I was shocked, my employer only took out $680 on 21K.
My other employer took out $350 on 8K.
Last year I paid in almost 3K in Federal taxes alone. So now I am flipping out because I have no idea why both my jobs stopped taking out the right amount of money. Nothings changed except I now claim Married and not Single.
I can't afford to make a huge payment to the IRS... Why in the world are they not taking out what they should.
The wife gave me her W-2's and lo and behold, her employers did the same thing. Not enough taken out. One of her's was $80 on 4K worth of income.. Are you serious?
If we are married with no kids, how many exemptions should we be claiming? 0,1,2? I would like more taken from each check so I end up with a refund and not owing!!!
HELP!!!!!
