Trying to plan a budget for H getting a job.
Last time I looked up a paycheck calculator, something was weird when I entered retirement contributions and it showed H netting $0. So what do you use to calculate withholdings?

I used paycheck city and it was right on the money. When I get $0 it's usually because I'm putting in the annual retirement contribution instead of the actual dollar amount per pay period. So I just had to divide my annual contribution by 26 (get paid biweekly) to get the right amount.

Ok, I just got it to work. Think I figured out my error. I believe that with H's new job, we just may be able to max out our employer retirement accounts and save for a house!

Thanks! Now we just have to coordinate the logistics of getting my transfer, giving notice on our house, packing, finding an apartment, and moving. No biggie. ::breathes into paper bag::
