TurboTax is having me go right to the state return without my spouses income

You can add his income to whichever category he has income.

For example, if he has a W-2, you will add your husband's W-2 in the same section you added your own.

Click on Federal Taxes, Wages & Income, Job (W-2), Add/Edit
On the next page select Add a W-2
Choose your husband's name
Then, fill out the information from the W-2

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.
