Do I need to do anything different when filing if my husband works and I stay home with the kids? We file jointly and married.

Filing jointly is usually best, especially if there are children --- so that you get the child related credits. You can file a joint return even if one spouse had little or no income.

I don't know what you mean by "different". My wife never worked - always was a stay at home Mom. We always file jointly. Just follow the prompts.
