If you are filing as Married Filing Jointly you enter your spouse's income information in the same sections of the program as your income. There will be screens for each income section that ask to select who the income or form is for, by name.
Click on Federal>Wages & Income
Are you filing a joint return? If you set your joint return up correctly, every income screen will have a spot with each spouse's name. Or as you click to add income it will ask which spouse it is for.
You can add your spouse's income here:
I'm attempting to file a joint return for my wife and I for the 2024 tax year. I cannot add her income information, it only allows me to add income information for myself.
@eng19888 When you were entering your personal information and selected Married, did you also indicate that you will be filing this tax return with your spouse? If so, you are filing as Married Filing Jointly, and on a joint tax return every income section in the TurboTax program will ask who the income or form belongs to, by Name.
Go back to the income sections you need to enter for your spouse.
@eng19888 If you correctly started your return as a joint return in MY INFO you will be able to add income for both spouses. Better check to see if you did things correctly in MY INFO. Did you choose to file together with your spouse? Did you enter her name, Date of Birth, Social Security number, etc.?
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. Go to the screens to enter your spouse’s W-2’s, 1099’s, etc. just like you did for your own income. Then look for your spouse’s name there.
When I click my wife’s name and try to input her T4/T5, I found my name still on the screen and the system always regard her T slip to be mine. There is a word on the screen: For joint accounts, only enter your slip info into one spouse return. What this mean?
