How is your family doing these days?

[yuechu]

Hello!

I'd like to ask the following question in Korean: "How is your family doing these days?" (=his wife and kids)
Does anyone know how to say this in Korean?
Thanks!

#1. 가족들은 요즘 잘 지내? - addressed to friends or younger people
#2. 가족들은 요즘 잘 지내나요? - addressed to younger people in a formal situation or the elderly
#3. 가족들은 요즘 잘 지냅니까? - addressed in a very formal situation

As I assume you are an ESL teacher in Canada, #2 seems a preferable option.

I'd use 모자 [母子] since the question specified the wife and son, which in turn comes to be mother and son.

Thank you both for your help! The student is older than me. I think it is still ok to use 나요 with him, right? (Does this word make it formal?)

Does this word make it formal?

Not at all. In case you talk with an older person, 나요 is totally informal language.
