When you enter your own information in My 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.
When you file a joint return that means you prepare ONE tax return that will get ALL of your combined income information, your credits/deductions, dependents (if any) etc. all on one return. You will receive ONE refund (if you are getting a refund.)
