Entering my daughter's W-2

My daughter made $8500 in 2016. Should I file her W-2 separately or in my wife and my joint filing.

You do not add your daughter's earned income to your tax return. She would file her own income tax return and claim the income. If she is your dependent, she is required to file a federal tax return with that amount of income.
