@wheezzy69 Your W-4 goes to your employer; it does not go to the IRS. The information you put on your W-4 tells your employer how much tax to withhold, but it does not dictate how you have to file your tax return or dictate the filing status you must enter on your tax return. There is another option on your W-4 that you can use if you want to---which is to have an extra amount withheld from each paycheck. See Step 4 (c) .
