I chose to file jointly with my spouse, but it only had me upload my own W-2, shouldn't they get my spouse's as well to get his return?

Yes after you entered or imported the first W2 it should have an Add another button.  It doesn't ask for each spouse.  When you add a W2 you first select who it is for.

If you are filing a joint return you need to enter ALL of the income from both spouses, so yes, you have to include your spouse's W-2 as well as your own.    A joint return has to include all of the information and all of the income, credits, dependents, etc. etc. etc. for both spouses.  Did you e-file it already?   Or are you still working on the return?
