Everyone’s tax situation is different. Having said that when I had kids I could claim I never paid. I always got a return.
Once my kids could no longer be claimed I started owing. I now claim married with zero and take an additional $40 a week out for federal I pretty much breakeven.
I do single, 2. My wife and I file jointly. We have two dependent children. No additional taken out. I max out my 401k, but it's traditional and not Roth so that helps tax time (which is the point).

I tried to put just enough in my 4o1k to keep me out of the next tax bracket.
My wife does not make a lot of money but they did not take the proper amount of taxes out.
