Deductions & credits

There are a lot of factors here, and although you can base future withholding on your 2019 refund, it is just one piece of the puzzle. Your anticipated filing status for 2020, income, deductions, and credits are major elements in the W-4 calculations. Did you receive a recent raise? That can also have a major impact.

 

I would recommend running the IRS calculator again and paying very close attention to your inputs.
