New SSN issued post mid-February 2025 for my spouse. How to answer some TT questions when filing 2024 returns?

Dear Experts,

Please see the following screenshot. This is a question TurboTax (TT) is asking when I am trying to e-file via TT. Our situation is tricky. My spouse has got a new SSN issued post mid-February 2025. So, as discussed in this and this thread, while e-filling if I put my spouse's new SSN and spouse's 2023 AGI to be 0 and my 2023 AGI from our married-filling-joint 2023 return. How do I answer the question shown in the screenshot?

Please feel free to ask for clarification.

Hi @JohnB5677 ,

Thanks for pointing that. I am not sure why the screenshot didn't get uploaded. Let me try that again.

We filed a return together should work.  But if it rejects from the IRS then change it to 'we each filed our own return'.
