Confused about w4 (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by rpeters91
When I was filling out paperwork my boss didn't know how to help me fill out the w4. I put in what I thought was the correct info and come to find out i never got state or federal taken out of my paycheck. I was hoping to take home a form to have someone who actually knows what they're doing to help me fill it out but apparently you can only fill out the w4 forms online at work which is of no help to me. I don't really know what to do, can anybody help me who understand the form? I have 1 child who I claim.

If you had no taxes withheld from your paycheck your then your income likely was not high enough to trigger a withholding.

If you fill out the W4 with just your basic info (step 1) then the maximum will be withheld each check. For your child, enter $2,000 in step 3, then a sign it.

Thanks. I checked my w4 info and it says I claim 0 allowances and I have 2,000 I'm claiming for dependent. Does that sound right?

This does sound correct, yes.

I called Corprate and they told me that they don't know if taxes will come out next paycheck or not and to call the IRS if they don't. So I guess I'll just wait til next check to see if anything happens haha. Thanks for your help!

not to dig up a dead thread, but just for your reference, your SM isn’t legally allowed to help you fill it out (that what my boss told me). Your W4 basically determines how much money you pay in taxes, and how much you will get back after filing your taxes
