Yes, if you are married filing jointly (MFJ) you are BOTH covered by MAX.

Please read this TurboTax FAQ for information on “What is MAX?”: What is MAX?

I called IDNotify, and they disagree on this. They stated that my spouse's MAX benefits are not cover even though I filed jointly. As of matter of fact, she needs a premier account to receive the same benefits, which is a $15 monthly subscription. 
As for my IDNotify portal, I can't add her or her personal information as part of the MAX benefit.
