My wife is Mexican, living and working in mexico , she does not have SSN, should I fill out my taxes as single?

If you are a US citizen or US resident, legally married and your spouse does not have a Social Security number or an ITIN and you are not applying for an ITIN with the tax return then you can only file your tax return as Married Filing Separately.  Where asked to enter the spouse's Social Security number enter 999-88-9999.  You can only print and mail your tax return, it cannot be e-filed.  When you print the tax return erase the Social Security number for your spouse and manually enter NRA for non-resident alien.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for the procedure to print and mail a tax return using the online editions - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1944348-how-do-i-print-and-mail-my-return-in-turbotax-online

If you are not yet a US resident then you will have to file a Form 1040-NR for a nonresident alein.  TurboTax does not support Form 1040-NR.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for a Form 1040-NR - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-forms/turbotax-handle-form-1040-nr-n...
