I just got married we have 2 children. We will not be changing our w4 this year but need to know what to claim next year. We make around 60,000 a year combined.
We would like to get the most out of our checks throughout the year but would also like a decent refund come tax time. I usually get around 7000 back at tax time because I have always claimed single with 2 dependants.
