Hello Shanksr08!
Congratulations! How exciting, and thank you so much for being here. More times than not, it is better to file as Married filing joint. I would recommend that you both change your W-4 to reflect your current situation. With that being said, some taxpayers prefer to have a refund while others prefer to have more in their paychecks, so there a few things you may need to decide. If you were already at Single 0, they will continue to withhold as they have been, and that will ensure that you will have enough withheld and might have a refund when you file your taxes. I definitely recommend using the TurboTax Caster to get an idea of what your tax return may look like when you file: https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/ . You can try it as Married Filing Joint or Married Filing Separate, as those are the different filing statuses you qualify for.
