You can only add a dependent claim in dollar amount, Kate. But if you invited an employee to self-set up their payroll info, they can add it in their Workforce account.

 

Here's how to add a dependent claim:

 

  1. Go to My apps and choose Payroll.
  2. Click Employees and choose the name of the employee.
  3. Select Tax withholdings and click Edit.
  4. Enter the amount in the Claimed dependents' deduction.
  5. Click Save.
