My fiancé and I are currently domestic partners. I will make $100k+ this year and she will make around $10k this year. We think it will be best for her to claim our child on her return, but would like to know if it will hurt us if I claim 1 dependent on my W4.
Thank you.

Claiming an exemption on a W-4 that you give to your employer does affect or reflect the number of dependents you claim or not claim on a tax return.
An exemption on a W-4 is only for calculating the amount of taxes that will be withheld from your wages. So there is no issue if you want to claim an extra exemption on your W-4.
