Hi I just married and I am not sure how to fill out my W-4. I don't want to make it so more taxes are being taken out of my check. But I don't want to mess up and take too little out of my check. My wife and I do not have any children and we both make more then $40,000 per year. Any information would be helpful. Thanks!

The instructions on the W-4 form should walk you through the process for determining how many allowances to claim. Factors such as whether you plan to itemize and whether both you and your wife work can affect the number. See: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw4.pdf
