    Federal tax withholding; W-4
    I live in Kansas. If my gross paycheck (80 hours) is $1,350, how should I fill out my W-4 form to achieve a federal withholding of $197.00 per pay period?

    For a single person with biweekly taxable earnings of $1,350 the witholding will be $159 if you have 0 allowances, which is $38 short of your goal. You can request that your employer withhold an aditional amount on line 6 of your W4. If you claim 0 allowances, and request an additional $38 per pay period, it should come out to $197.
