So,
I recently got a new job, filled out the W4, got a total of 2 allowances. One for single and have only one job, one for no one else claiming me as a dependant. Which is exactly the same as my previous job.
I get my first check today, and I see 0 exemptions on the pay stub. I had 1 exemption from my previous job and still got plenty back come income tax time.
How do I get that 1 exemption?
I rather have my money and put it in a 5% savings than loan it to uncle same at 0% until next year.
