When you enter your own information in My Info, you have to answer the question "Were you married?"  If you click the button for Married, then a drop down will appear that asks, "Do you want to file this return together with your spouse?"  Then you choose yes to file a joint return.  You would then enter your spouse's information into My Info.  Whenever you are entering income information there should then be a spot for you and for your spouse's income information.  Income screens will have spots with each spouse’s name—be careful to enter under the correct names.

Go back and enter her income.  Click on Federal on the left side of the online program screen.  Click on Wages & Income

On every section for income, when filing as Married Filing Jointly, you can select who the income belongs to by name.
