    Are they withhelding correctly on my W2
    Hi,
    I have a question regarding my W2 2008. I am from California. On my w2 it says I made 6276.00 and federal withheld is only 126.00. Line 17 state income tax is blank. I claim 0 on my taxes. Does these number seem odd? Judging from the following numbers would I have to pay back?

    Considering your income level, have ZERO state income taxes withheld makes all the sense in the world, because you will NOT owe any state income taxes on $6,276.

    I have a similar issue with a part time job I have. Most weeks I don't make enough for any FED withholding. That may be the reason yours is so low.

    Yes, your weekly or bi weekly earnings are not high enough, so you may wish to consider having more with held if you want more withheld
