Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You do have a lot of moving pieces this year!  I suggest that you spend some time experimenting with the W-4 Calculator tool.  This will let you calculate all possible withholding scenarios; including the difference in your withholding requirements for married filing separately vs married filing jointly.

 

I like these calculators because they help strengthen the understanding about how the various elements (such as filing status and dependents) impact your ultimate tax liability.
