She makes approximately $120,000 and I make $65,000 a year. I changed our W4 this year to both married filling at higher single rate and an extra $300 was being takin out of my check twice a month. Now that we are splitting and I anticipate filling separate returns next year, I would like to get that extra $300 dollars/check back in my hands. I am not sure how I should change the W4 and exactly how many allowances I should take since the divorce may not be finalized by the end of the year. I obviously want to maximize my benefit when receiving refunds next year. Please advise.
