I'm confused about filing jointly. Do I put both of our income on my session or do we do our own session?

We got married in October and are filing. I'm unsure whether we should put both of our income on my session or do we each file our own?

If you are filing married filing jointly, you enter both of your incomes in the same session, same tax return.  You will be prompted to indicate whether each piece of income is yours or your spouses and in some cases, such as interest and dividends, the income can be jointly owned.
