Means he’s a wage slave just like me.

Good look getting your employer to take zilch out of your check.

Not hard to do, actually. All he has to do is adjust the deductions on his W-4 to about 10 or so (You can adjust your W-4 at any time during the year) . Of course, as others are saying, he'll eventually pay the piper even if he stops filing.

“Not hard to do, actually. All he has to do is adjust the deductions on his W-4 to about 10 or so (You can adjust your W-4 at any time during the year)”

Thanks for the education.

But...

I know a guy who adjusted his W-4 to 6, and after one full tax year, his company was sent a threatening letter and ordered to withhold on him as if he was single with no deductions. There was mention of a fine, a deadline to respond, etc.

Oh yeah...I’m the guy.

So I repeat “Good look getting your employer to take zilch out of your check.”

Not so fast... You can set the deductions as you like, but you're supposed to pay quarterly once your tax bill exceeds a threshhold (either $500 or $1,000 if I recall correctly). If you don't, but still file and pay at year's end, you're likely to get away with it.

But that's only getting away with it. Maybe. I'm neither a lawyer nor accountant, so YMMV.
