Most answers I’ve seen on this topic are technically right but my issue is not what is correct but what throws it up into the face of the IRS. I think and it may well be the IRS can demand support for the number claimed but generally they do not do this until the quantity reaches a threshold, I’m searching for this number. Is it 9, 10 or does it just depend, which appears extremely unlikely given who we are dealing with here? They require to have something flagged just before they find it and I want to know what that number is.
For all of you out there who like paying taxes – GOD BLESS YOU!!! – I want all my money back or at least what I’m legally allowed and I want it long prior to April 15. I do not like lending my cash to the IRS, they do not pay interest on dollars they borrow.
For example, appropriate now, the government is in crisis and in CA, a month later, I’ve still not received my $ 500 and when I do lastly get it, it will be no more than the amount shown on my return. The State Controller even had the nerve to tell individuals the refund checks had to be delayed to pay bills in fact owed by the state. Now that is an explanation for you. Apparently, my dollars is a gift until CA decides to give it back.
Exact same with the FEDs!!! Get your funds while you can. Do not let them have a penny additional. Believe me they will spend it and your return on your investment in “public services” if you are lucky is perhaps $ .05 on the dollar and that really does assume we are lucky. The greening of our nation would be very best served by very first cleaning up all the trash and waste of our government from the Fed’s all the way down to the smallest governmental entity.

In order to claim an exemption, there should be a valid social security number associated with it. The IRS checks against this, regardless of whether or not you E-file or do a paper return. If the data does not match their records, or the person you’re claiming an exemption has already been claimed on yet another return, then the IRS will not accept the return. The IRS checks the social security number of every exemption, no matter whether you file 1 or 9 or 10.
In previous years, W-4′s that claimed 10 or more allowances were to be sent to the IRS but that has since been eliminated. W-4′s are still subject for review and employers can be directed to submit certain W-4′s to the IRS.
Your W-2 can be used instead. to see if you’re in compliance with withholding regulations. If you’re found in non-compliance, the IRS will issue a ‘lock-in’ letter to notify the employer to withold at a certain rate and maximum allowances.
