Taxed at a Different Rate?

As noted by Shagnasty, it’s irrelevant to the overall tax owed at the end of the year; it just increases the likelihood of getting a refund, and increases the amount of that refund.

As pointed out, the money isn’t lost, but I’m sure the OP is far more concerned about getting as much net now since being separated from the company that had steady employment.
