Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yes, you and your spouse can filing jointly using TurboTax provided that your spouse has an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number ("ITIN").  

Your spouse needs an ITIN for you to filing jointly.  You must file Form W-7 (PDF)Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, to apply for an ITIN and to show that you have a federal tax purpose for seeking the ITIN. Along with the completed Form W-7, you'll submit identity documents and either a federal tax return or other documentation to show the federal tax purpose for which you need the ITIN.

You can apply for your ITIN by mail or in person at designated IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers (TACs) in the United States. TACs operate by appointment only. If you apply by mail, use the address shown in the Form W-7 Instructions and in Publication 1915.pdfUnderstanding Your IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number.  If you apply in person, the IRS will review your documents and return them to you immediately.  

Applicants may also submit their applications by using the services of a Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA). CAAs are individuals, businesses, or organizations authorized by the IRS to assist taxpayers in the ITIN application process. After reviewing your application, the IRS will return your documentation to you. If your original documents haven't been returned within 60 days, you may call 800-829-1040 (in the United States).  Allow 7 weeks for the IRS to notify you in writing of your ITIN application status (9 to 11 weeks if you submit the application during peak processing periods (January 15 through April 30).
