WIFE HAS SSA-1099

First----your wife is not your dependent.  A spouse cannot ever be claimed as a dependent.  You can file a joint return with your spouse.   Her SSA1099 must be entered on the joint return.

 

 Go to Federal> Wages & Income>>Retirement Plans and Social Security  (SSA1099 and 1099RRB) to enter your SSA1099.
