What form are you trying to fill out?  Are you using an old version of a W-4?

 

Here is the 2020 version you need:

 

https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw4.pdf

 

 

And....if you have not had any tax withheld all year and expect to owe at least $1000 at tax time you will be subject to penalties.  You might want to make an estimated payment directly on  the IRS site.

 

https://www.irs.gov/payments/direct-pay

 

If you do that make sure you enter it when you prepare your 2020 tax return.  Post back then to get help with entering the estimated payment.
