Az state & federal claims

Good day, 

I was wondering if you can help me with this question? I noticed every year I owe on my state tax. Can I add allowances on AZ state tax or do I need to just leave the number I have for federal income tax? 

Is it possible to split the number of dependents between the two? 

I would like to make sure I filled out my w 4 correctly. 

Thank you!

AZ withholding is based on a graduated  rate system and many folks can be underwithheld ... so review your AZ return ... divide the tax bill by the gross income to see which % you need to be withheld at ...

If the highest % is still not enough then you can have a designated amount in ADDITION to the reg withholdings indicated :
