Just moved from AZ to GA and started a new job. Filed out W-4 for new salaried position and put 2 defendants on there. My wife also works and I collect monthly military retirement pay. When I signed in to mypay to adjust state withholding it has a box labeled “additional state withholding” that you must fill in. A number from $10-$9999. Why do I have to have to have additional $$ withheld for state taxes?

What crimes did they commit?
In all seriously, W-4’s haven’t had space for dependents since like 2019 or something. It’s been dollars for additional withholding since then.
When I filled out mine there was no state withholding except what I put in that box. It’s all additional.
The feds and the state don’t know all your sources of income for withholding. There’s a form for helping with how to fill out your W-4 but if you’ve got retirement plus a new job plus your wife works, chances are that you’re not withholding enough.
