No.  You don't enter any 2022 W2 into a 2023 return.  What are you trying to do?  Are you filing Joint again for 2023?  Do you have any income for 2023?  If you don't have a W2 then skip that section.

What is the program asking for specifically?

 

You can only use a 2022 W2 form to file your 2022 tax return;  You can not use it to file your 2023 tax return.
