Is your wife's LLC a single-member LLC? Has the LLC filed Form 8832 to elect to be treated as a C corporation or Form 2553 to elect to be treated as an S corporation for tax purposes?

You and your wife should file a joint tax return. You enter your W-2, and you enter your wife's self-employment income as business income. The single-member LLC is ignored for income tax purposes (it's called a "disregarded entity), so you file the same as if she was a sole proprietor without an LLC.

You will have to use either TurboTax Online Self-Employed or any edition of the CD/Download TurboTax software. You posted your question from a mobile device. You cannot use the CD/Download TurboTax software on a mobile device. It requires a full Windows or Mac computer. Using TurboTax Online Self-Employed on a mobile device is possible, but you might encounter difficulties. For a tax return with self-employment, it would be better to use a computer.
