Hello,
I've been trying to return my taxes using Turbo Tax Deluxe. I'm so far able to enter my W2 income tax information, but unable to enter my wife's W2 income tax information. My personal info shows that I'm Married and Filing Jointly with both my and my wife's name on the list, but nowhere it lets me add my wife's income. I looked at other messages from Turbo tax on this issue, but I don't see any option for additional income information. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

I haven't been able to find that option either, did you figure out how to add your spouses income?

Hello,
I need clarification on this point.
I am filing in 2024, so filing taxes for the 2023 year.
The line in question is asking for information from my spouse's 2023 tax return (line 23400, 23500, etc).
Are we not currently filling out this tax return? How can I have this information if it isn't filed yet? Is it looking for last year's return? I appreciate the clarification.

And yes, you need to put in your spouse's information from the same tax year that you are preparing for yourself. If your spouse/partner hasn't completed their return, you can put in an estimate for now and then put the correct number before you file.
