Question: Online calculator to optimize 2010 W4 withholdings?

My husband and I get back around $5,000 federal refund every year, and around $1,500 State, even though he already has a high number of exemptions (I have been home since having my baby last year and am only making a small amount doing childcare). Between tithe to church, interest on our condo, property taxes, 401K, insurance and other deductions, 40% of his income is gone before we touch it (another 25% to federal, state, etc. taxes).

I’m hoping to optimize his W4 at the beginning of 2010, so we can have that money on a monthly basis, rather than letting the government earn interest off of our money until they refund it. The IRS has one for the remainder of 2009, but I can’t find one I can use to estimate the right number of exemptions for next year. Does anyone know of a website where I could put in forecast numbers to get an idea of the number of exemptions he should put?

Answer: You can adjust your W-4 any time during the year, so go ahead and use the current IRS calculator. When they update the calculator, re-run the numbers and adjust if needed.
