Yes, you certainly want to include your husband's W-2 if you are married filing jointly. In addition, if you and your
husband did not itemize your deductions in 2015, but instead took the Standard
Deduction, you do not have to report the 1099-G's because they would not be
taxable. However, if you and/or your husband itemized your deductions on Schedule A, you would report both/one 1099-G'(s) in the joint tax return as follows:
• Open up your
Turbotax program and select the Federal
Taxes tab at the top left of your screen
• Select Wages & Income and I’ll choose what I work on
• On Your 2016 Income Summary Page, scroll down
to the 1099-MISC and Other Common
Income section, and select the Start or Update button to the right of the line that
reads State and Local Tax Refunds
on Form 1099-G
• On the next
page, State and Local Tax Refund
Summary, enter the first 1099-G and you’ll see a blue box towards the
bottom that reads Add Another
State or Local Tax Refund. Enter the second 1099-G here.
