my status as a qualified widower expires this year, I can claim head of household on my tax return but there is no filing status for head of household on a W4 and Claiming single with a dependent will deduct too much from my check to pay my monthly bills. I don't want to we at the end of the year, what is the best way to file on my W4?
You can increase the number of exemptions on a W-4 to have less taxes withheld from your wages. The number of exemptions claimed on a W-4 is not relevant to the number of dependents claimed on a tax return.
