Hello!

 

On the current W4, Dependents on Step 3 are referring to children or other dependents, not spouse.  

 

If you only have one source of income, your husband's retirement, and no children or other dependents, you should be able to mark Married filing jointly at the top, leave the dependents line in Step 3 blank and enter any other income and deductions in Step 4.
