Our return is being refused because I listed my wife's AGI as zero because she didn't earn any 1040 income. How do I fix this ?

[grohn-me]

All her income is from 1099s: DoD retirement, SSA - and alimony with prepaid taxes.

Your wife's 2023 AGI is the amount on Form 1040 line 11 of the tax return that she filed for 2023. If you and she filed jointly for 2023, then her 2023 AGI is the same as yours. You use the amount on line 11 of your joint tax return for both of you.

if you filed a joint return in 2023, then her agi is the joint agi (line11). if she filed separately her agi is line 11 of her 2023 return
