If you each filed single in 2019, but are filing joint in 2020, then you would combine the amounts for both spouses for the IT-201 lines in question. If the amounts entered are not correct, your state return will probably be rejected.
Line 46 of 2019 Form IT-201 is Total New York State Taxes.
Line 58 of 2019 Form IT-201 is Total New York City and Yonkers taxes / surcharges and MCTMT.
You stated that your spouse filed a different NYS return in 2019. If he filed a IT-203, you would get the values needed from his 2019 form on Lines 50 and 55, respectively.
