W-4 for two jobs

Varies

Can You Write Off W-4 for Two Jobs?

Short answer: Check the Step 2 box or use the IRS estimator so each job withholds enough; otherwise both employers under-withhold.

Married couples who both work face the same issue.

Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
