Filing federal e-file

I'm going through the process of e-filing my federal return.  It is asking for my AGI. Then it asks my wife's AGI which appears as the same because it is a joint return. Is this what they're looking for. I should just say OK to both entries?  It warns through this process that you shouldn't make a mistake so, I just want clarification before I finish it off and get pins for both of us.

If you filed a 2018 federal tax return as Married Filing Jointly then the 2018 AGI is the same for both of you.
