I am trying to understand why I cannot enter my wife as a dependent because she has the same Social Security number as my wife because she is my wife

 

Retirement tax questions

You cannot enter a spouse as a dependent.  You should be filing as Married Filing Jointly even if one spouse has little or no income.  You receive the highest standard deduction of $24,000 if under age 65.
