Get your taxes done using TurboTax

okay.  Clearly I have been given multiple avenues on this.

 

1.  I use to file Married, withhold at higher tax - That is no longer an option

2.  Now it states, "Married Filing Jointly

3.  The IRS website states that for W-4 section 2(c) if there are only 2 jobs total (1 job a piece) you may check this box.  The description states, "Use this step if you have more than one job OR are married filing jointly and your spouse also works."

4. If the box is checked, "the standard deduction and tax brackets will be cut in half for each job to calculate holdings.  What does this part mean?  Does this mean more is taken out in taxes or less?

 

So..

1.  If I choose "Married Filing Jointly" is that the same as the old statement, "Married withhold at a high tax"?

2.  Does checking 2(c) also deduct additional tax withholdings?

 

Thanks,
