h1 & h4. W-4 allowances for 2008
My husband and I arrived in the US in October 2007, me on a H1 and him on a H4. I plan to file single for 2007 to avoid the complications of tax already paid in the UK on earnings there (income was considerably greater there!)
However, I am wondering what is best to have withheld as we go into 2008. From my limited understanding of the system, it would be safe to use married, 2 allowances. I think this might even be witholding a little too much, but I need to find the balance between avoiding a large refund or large payment in April 2009.
Any help would be great
Thanks
