If you file a joint return with spouse is the AGI the same for both people
the income is duplicated for me and my wife even if she didn't make any money. Is that correct?

My return is rejected because after I entered my AGI for last year it is saying the AGi for my spouse is incorrect. We files together and only have one AGi. Some people from previous years with the same problem are saying to enter 0, is that still the case?

Yes, when filing as Married Filing Jointly the AGI is the same for each spouse.

Turbo Tax has an option, where it allows you to fix that issue. Check your email or in the note you received about the rejection of tax return. They will take you step by step, but basically you check your 2015 AGI (Adjusted Gross Income) number, usually is line "37" on the form 1040. Once you check that number, then compare it to the AGI number that was submitted when you did your 2016 taxes. Hopefully, that will help you out.

I have entered the correct, from line 37, AGI information for both us on a joint return and it is still getting rejected.

This is good news, thanks for replying, Anilmandru. The bad news is that the Turbotax directs are totally misleading. I had the idea of using 0 (since my wife had no income last year) but I forgot about it after reading these directions. I will follow your advice next year. Too bad for Turbotax. We pay for this service, it should come with a warranty.

This is a 2 year old question and the IRS rules are totally different for 2016.
