Hi there!

I am a single woman who has 0 dependents and still owed $1500. I need to figure out what and how I need to change my W-4 to make sure I am getting the most out of it.

Hello

This is a great questions, I understand you are filing as single with no dependents. When you prepared and filed your tax return you owe $1,500.

I would do the following:

1. Check your withholding status with your employer to make sure it has your correct status (Single and No Dependents)

2. Then I would complete the IRS Tax Withholding Estimator, this will assist you in determining if your current withholdings are on track for this year.

https://www.irs.gov/individuals/tax-withholding-estimator

After completing the Tax Withholding Estimator, if it is determined you need additional withholdings, you can complete and provide your employer a new 2024 IRS Form W-4. On the Form, Step 4 (c) will give you an option for Extra Withholding that can be taken out by your employer on each pay period.

Thank you for joining the event!
