Claiming 4 allowances generally means you expect to have fewer taxes withheld from your paycheck, potentially due to having dependents, a higher income, or other tax credits. This can lead to larger take-home pays but comes with the risk of owing taxes at the end of the year if not enough is withheld. Use the resources available on the NY IT-257 to accurately determine your allowances based on your personal situation.
