Since your return was rejected, you can go back into your return and make the required changes. Your wife's W-2 will not automatically be included without you either typing it in or importing it into your return.
The following TurboTax help article will guide you to entering the additional W-2:

Also, be sure to edit the information in the My Info section of your return. Enter your wife's name just as it is on her Social Security Card. Otherwise, the records at the IRS will not match and it will be rejected again.
When you are entering income on a joint return, every income entry screen will either have a spot with both spouse’s names there, or when you click to enter a W-2, 1099R, etc. it will ask you by name which spouse it is for. You do not have to wait for the software to “ask” you for your spouse’s income.
