My husband and I file jointly. We have two kids but I am a sahm mom so his income is our only income. Would it be better to claim them on the W4 or not?

There are too many variables involved to answer that question without a lot more information.  Information you probably wouldn't want  to share in a public forum like Community.   I suggest you use one (or both) of the following to determine the correct amount to have withheld and how to adjust your W-4.  It won't be any help for 2024 taxes, but it can prevent you from owing any tax on your 2025 return.
