I’ve found the W4 process doesn’t work well for me.
I’ve an excel spreadsheet that projects my tax bill.
I then adjust my withholding to match.
I usually get a few hundred refund. Just enough to ensure I don’t owe.
I wish the IRS would make the W4 optional and just allow you to specify a specific dollar amount to be withheld.

I always add 500 dollars to withholding besides the 250 they take every month due to my small business on the side. It works somewhat well.

The W4 is useless these days.
