If you expect to owe taxes of $1,000 or more you would still need to pay quarterly taxes. Typically this applies to freelancers and those who have self-employed businesses. Since you fixed your W4, there should be no need to keep paying quarterly taxes for 2024 - but be sure to include the $403 you have already paid on your 2024 tax return under "estimated tax payments".
Since you don't receive any of your nursing home spouse's income, you could file as "Married Filing Separately". You would then prepare a Married Filing Separately return for your your spouse.
Usually Married Filing Jointly has the most tax breaks - here is a great resource with more information:
