Anyone adjusting 2018 withholding?

Did a search for topic but turned up nada

In light of 2018 tax changes, are you adjusting any withholding on any of your income sources now? Since my income is fixed, I should probably run a tax scenario based on the new regs, but haven't yet.

Have you made any adjustment?

IRS says you do not have to file a new W-4. But I recalculate every year and peg my withholding to my estimate.

When I saw the increase in my take home, I reduced my exemptions by 1 on both Fed and State. I usually owe $1k or so each year when taxes done, so trying to get closer to break even.

This is what I do, shooting for a small or zero refund. I made adjustments but not just becasue of the tax law. Started SS and stopped IRA withdrawals.
