Single mom here - no CS on regular basis from XH. I work 2 jobs and claim 0 all year and then claim HOH and my DD. WEll.......
a year ago my main job switched payroll and we had to sign this W2 form thingy and I know I claimed 0 but for whatever reason they havne't been taking out $$$ from my check. Also at my main job I get paid 2 different rates on for 40hr and the other rate for another 40hr for doing 2 differnt types of work. Well my checks are NEVER the same NEVER.
Sooooooo of course I should of been paying better attention but nah I just "ASS"ummed. I know that I haven't "lost" the money because it has been in my check all year but dayuuummm why didn't I check?!!!
I have to go in and make sure this year I am claiming 0 but if it wasn't my fault if I marked the form correctly there isn't anything they will do about it but GAWWWDDD.....at least I won't have to pay in but still I am so angry at my stupid self.
I wanted to take my DD to disney world this yeear!!!!

Well, no.... it's ultimately your responsibility to be sure that they are witholding an adequate amount, and truly.... it's better to claim your correct exemptions so that you get back (or have to pay in) next to nothing... and keep stuffing an extra amount away each pay period into an interest paying savings account.
