New W4 2020

I have a few quick questions. 

 

What differences between Marriage 1 income and Marriage 2 income? which one is more deduction?

What happens if I tick the box "two job only..."? => you paycheck will deduct more or not?

What happens if we updated employees W4 2019 to W4 2020?

The deductions for new paycheck (updated new W4) is different vs the paycheck (W4 2019)?

=> How can employees can keep their new deduction as same as with the old deduction?

 

Thank you so much. I am so confused now !

Hello, @JunNg

  

Thank you for reaching out to the Community. It depends with the contribution, majority are the tax credits, earned income credit and the allowances. However, if you file a joint tax return, your federal tax rate may be lower than that of an unmarried individual. That's just one example of how U.S. tax laws are written to provide married couples with greater benefits than those received by other individuals.  

 

To answer your other questions. You can visit the IRS website to use the Tax Withholding Estimator. This will help you make sure you have the right amount of tax withheld from your paycheck.
