Note: If you already started a return and did not indicate that you want to prepare your spouse's return at the same time, you must start a new return. However, you can do this using your original account. Once you've logged in to TurboTax Online, use the Return Manager to create a new return.
Note: Just because you are married or living common-law, you do not have to prepare a coupled return. You and your spouse can prepare individual returns. However, you must enter the correct marital status and your spouse's personal information when prompted.TurboTax Online can be used to do single or coupled returns.
