just retired

This is my first full year of retirement.  I have several sources of income - social security and two pensions.  How do I determine if I need to adjust my W-4s so that I don't owe this year?  And how do I determine which income bracket I am now in?

Thank you for the question.   You would actually want to use the W-4P form, which can be found here: W-4P 

 

You will no longer use the W-4 as you are now retired.  If you want to request taxes to be withheld from your social security you would use the Form W-4V, which can be found here:  Form W-4V 

 

The marginal tax brackets for 2024 are as follows:
