How do I add my spouse

When you enter your own information in Personal Info, you have to answer the question "Were you married?"  If you click the button for Married, then a drop down will appear that asks, "Do you want to file this return together with your spouse?"  Then you choose yes to file a joint return.  You would then enter your spouse's information into Personal Info.  Whenever you are entering income information there should then be a spot for you and for your spouse's income information.

Are you using TurboTax Online or Desktop?

 

If using TurboTax Online: Try to clear your browser's cache and delete cookies. A full or corrupted cache can keep TurboTax from functioning properly. If that doesn't work, try a different browser such as Safari or Firefox if you're currently using Chrome and vice versa. 

 

If you are using TurboTax Desktop: Please see Troubleshoot blank screens, missing buttons, or missing images


If you continue to have issues please see the link below to contact one of our TurboTax representatives:
