..why don't they have them in English?


Good thing my dad has a bookkeeper. :thumbup:

 

wtf are withholding allowances and itemized deductions?

 

They arent in english?

 

not mine.
they're in Gibberish.

 

when it says "if your wages are less than $1000"...does that mean each check?

 

You serious? :eh:

 

uh...yeah. You knew what to do the first time you saw one of these?
I'm not an accounting major.

 

I grew up reading Money Magazine h:


























the sad part is that I'm actually serious, never got into comics as a kid :happysad:

 

seriously though. I'm trying to fill out the second page of a W-4 where you figure out withholdings if you have two jobs. What if you don't know which of your jobs is gonna be lowest paying or what the annual wages are gonna be?

 

Well, since you don't own a home, I would say that you don't have to worry about itemizing deductions, as for withholding, that can be 401k,which will be pulled from your wages tax free, but you will pay taxes eventually. I'm not sure what the problem you're really having? Just claim 0 if your parents still claim you, or 1 if you wanna claim yourself. Either way, you should get some cash back next year.
