Can I still get a refund if I claimed 9 allowances on my w-4?

The higher the number of allowances you claim on the W-4, the less the amount of tax withheld. Nine allowances doesn't allow for a lot of withholding. Without more information it's not possible to tell if you will be getting a refund. Other factors enter in, like filing status, number of dependents and any credits you qualify for.

Again ... hard to say because you could be eligible for some refundable credits. Try these tools:
