Hello,
My son is 17 and has been working a part time job since November 2024.
He only made a few hundred dollars in 2024 so he did not file taxes.
He still only works part time and currently is exempt on his W4 and has zero taxes taken out for Federal or State.
He works about 12 hours a week at minimum wage. Unless he adds more hours he is projected to make less than $10,000 for 2025.
When does he need to start having taxes deducted from his paychecks and how much does he need to have deducted.
We completed the IRS deduction estimator and it said nothing should be deducted.
If he does need to start deducting taxes from his checks the W4 is so confusing and we are unsure how much to have deducted and where to fill it out on the form.
Please help!!!
Thanks,
