Theoretically, if you properly fill out the worksheet on a W-4 (Withholding Certificate), the exact amount of tax--no more and no less--will be deducted.  However, it never works out that way.\n\nIf you're concerned about underpaying your taxes, you can file a form 1040ES, Estimated Tax.  It helps you determine what you expect to earn in the coming year to more accurately estimate your tax liability.  While this form is most often used by individuals running their own business, it is something to consider.\n\nAs for your state, it would depend on the one in which you live.

www.salary.com is a great site to find information.  We had to do a similar project for my Advanced Algebra II class, where we made a budget and everything.  That site is awesome and it really helps.  It even tells you how much after taxes and everything.

You need to pay taxes in the state that you work. Since you work 90% in NY, you would pay NY taxes.  My company is in California, but I work in another state and I pay that states taxes because that is where I am BASED out of, not California.  Your employer should be withholding NY taxes from your check if you home is considered your base office.

Did you request that information from the SSA?  They have a record of each employer that paid Medicare Taxes for you. May by you could go to your local office (http://www.ssa.gov  to find where your local office is) and ask them for a report of how many work credits you have earned, what employers have paid taxes on your behalf, when they paid it, and how much they paid.  If the SSA won't do it I am not sure where you could go.

It's taxable income.  How much you pay in taxes depends on your tax bracket (the percentage of tax you pay on your last dollar earned).\n\nIf that's all you made that year, the standard deduction and personal exemption would offset it, and there would be no federal taxes.  If you have other earnings though, there's no way to tell how much you'd play in tax without knowing your actual numbers.

Each exemption on a weekly basis is worth $63.46, so for 6 exemptions, your employeer will take $380.76 off your gross earnings before calculating federal taxes.  Note, if you paid every other week double this amount (so $761.52) (this can be found in the source on page 34).  Now, If your gross earnings are less then this, you will have no federal taxes withheld.  However, for an example say you gross $30,000 a year, that's $576.92 every week.  (What I am about to list I found on the source on pages 40-41, which is the pages you'll use to try other numbers, which I will explain later.)  Note this example is only for a weekly pay period, however if you are on a bi-weekly pay period, just double everything.  With 0 exemptions, federal withholding is approximatly $49.  With 6 exemptions it is approximatly $4.  So, for this example you have $45 extra each week.  To find out what it would be for you, looking at you pay stub find your gross pay, look it up in the charts on pages 40-41(which are the pages for married filing jointly, weekly pay period), unless you are on a bi-weekly pay period, then the pages are 44-45.  Find the amount the range in the two left columns that falls to either side of your gross pay (so for $576.92 I used the 570-580 line).  The columns after that are for each exemption 0 to 10.

Theoretically, the wages should be allotted based upon the amount earned while the employee lives in each state. However, the most important thing is that any state and local taxes that you withheld from the employee's pay is properly listed.
