W4

What is the best way to fill out a W-4 for a part-time job? I want to maximize the take home on each check and I'm not the sole breadwinner.

Hello @skagfamily :

Unfortunately with the new W4 there are few options. With your situation, you must pay special attention to steps 2 and 4. In these sections is where you'll be able to indicate the nature of your job. Keep an eye on your pay stub, and come back and adjust/re-fill your W4, if you are not satisfied with the withholding.

You can also use our W4 calculator in Turbo Tax. Click on this link to take you there: https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/calculators/taxcaster/
