whats the difference between 0 and 1??? is it just the fact the 0 gets more $ withheld?

lol....tony be knowing and shit....hella wants to be my accountant
Single 0 is what you are claiming on your taxes. You are single and have 0 dependents and someone else is claiming you so you will not have many deductions and will owe more, thus you'll want more withheld. Single 1 is being single, having 1 dependent, which is yourself if no one claims you, so you'll have more deductions making your overall tax less so you'll want less withheld. You can claim Single/Married 0 - Single/Married 99 if you wanted.

so does that mean if someone claims single 0 as opposed to single 1, do they get paid less on their paycheck?

I claim single 1 so is that the reason I don't get much back? If I claimed single 0 should I get more money back on my returns?

They will have more withheld, so yes, they'll get paid less, but let's say there's two people working the same hours with the same rate and will have the same deductions on their taxes with the only difference between their paychecks is one claimed 0 and the other claimed 1. They end up with their tax for the year at $1000. Now, the one claiming 0 will have paid more towards that and maybe overpaid. The one claiming 1 will have paid less towards and will get back less, but in the end they both paid $1,000 for the year.

Federal withholding is just an estimated payment towards your total tax for the year.

i dont know yo, im guessing yes tho..cuz the the reason why i claim single 1 is so that i can a bigger paycheck throughout the year...but im not sure how big a difference it makes....cuz in reality i am my own dependent and shit...who else claims single 1 in this bitch?

Yes, but no matter what you claimed you're paying EXACTLY the same in the end. If you would have got $1,000 more back with 0 instead of 1, you would have paid $1,000 in withholding from your checks.
