In general, married couples can add one allowance for each dependent. That means you have a total of three allowances if you have one dependent, four allowances if you have two dependents, five allowances if you have three dependents and so on.

The cause of your problem is that each of your jobs calculates your tax withholding using only that single job's income. With a dual-income household, the "married" choice usually under withholds (even with "0" allowances), leading to money owed when you file.

Practically speaking, claiming 0 withholding allowances on a W-4 means that your employer will withhold the maximum amount of income taxes from your paycheck. Do not get that statement confused with 'you will pay more taxes'. This is an important distinction. ... Withhold too little, and you'll pay at the end of the year.

If you claim a lot of allowances, you will receive a larger paycheck. However, come tax time, you are likely going to owe Uncle Sam, or receive a smaller refund and possibly no refund at all. On the other hand, if you claim 0 you will likely get a refund.

The rule generally goes that the fewer allowances you claim, the more money will be withheld or taken out of your paycheck and sent to the IRS towards your taxes.

Claiming two just means that less is withheld from each paycheck and your refund will be less at the end of the year (or you may owe the IRS). The general rule is that the more allowances you claim, the less withholding you'll have taken out of your paycheck.

While claiming one allowance on your W-4 means your employer will take less money out of your paycheck for federal taxes, it does not impact how much taxes you'll actually owe. Depending on your income and any deductions or credits that apply to you, you may receive a tax refund or have to pay a difference.

Generally, the more allowances you claim, the less tax will be withheld from each paycheck. The fewer allowances claimed, the larger withholding amount, which may result in a refund. ... You'll most likely get a refund back at tax time. Claim zero allowances if someone else claims you as a dependent on their tax return.
