If you are asking about the IP PINS for identity protection; for a joint tax return, you only need to enter an IRS Identity Protection Pin for each spouse that was specifically assigned one by the  IRS. If only one spouse has an IP PIN, you only enter that one; if you both have them; both are required to avoid rejection. 
 

If you are asking about the Pin numbers that you create when you are e-filing your tax return, generally they ask for one for each spouse.
