Deductions & credits

@Mel2023 the W-4 is set to mimic the tax return.   Filling out the W-4 to reflect the tax return will minimze the amount you owe or get as a refund comes April.  That assumes your income is all W-2 (or you make the appropriate adjustment in Step 4).

 

Only because it is so late in the year, I would fill it out as "single" - because in 2024 that will be your filing status. thne you won't have to change it comes January. 

 

 Otherwise, I would do HOH on the W-4 so that the refund is minimized.
