What is "No. Dep." Or "Number of Dependencies?"?

Question

I have a job where i need to fill out this form that keeps asking me "No.Dep" or "number of dependencies." What does that mean and I just graduated highschool and I'm living with my brother. What should i put? Thanks

Answer 1

you just put one for yourself or you can put even zero. i use zero. it's a matter of you getting a little extra each check and maybe owing at the end of the year, or keeping a little extra and not owing as much or getting a refund. i like the refund so  i claim zero even though i have like 5.

Answer 2

Presumably, the form is asking about "Dependents."  How many people depend upon you for support?  Do you have a wife and children?

It sounds like your answer would be "zero."

Answer 3

it means number of dependents not dependencies.  unless you have a child you probably don't have any dependents.  However, a dependent can be certain other people that you support.  (Or maybe they want to know how many drugs you are dependent on.) Just kidding!

Answer 4

its like how many kids you have or if ur single than you dont have any dependencies...i dont have any either and im out of high school also....

Answer 5

I think it's asking you for # of dependents -- if you are supporting someone or if you have children ...
