Deductions & credits
I do NOT know your exact circumstances but perhaps there is a possibility that you are being hired as an Independent Contractor and you will receive a 1099 rather than a W-2, instead.
Another possibility is that when filling out your W-4 Form, somehow BOTH boxes, Single, and Head of Household, were checked. ONLY ONE OF THE BOXES SHOULD BE CHECKED and, in combination with the number of dependents that you put on your form W-4, your income-level (low income) per period is such that it does NOT trigger any federal withholdings.
Also, please check STEP 4 from your W-4 form to see if inadvertently, you selected additional withholdings.
Finally, I will advise you to use the W-4 Calculator, W-4 Calculator, and/or consult a local tax professional, if you feel it is necessary.
