When you start a return, it will ask if you are completing a return for yourself, you and your partner, or someone else. You will choose for yourself. You have no choice but to put your marital status as married if you are married. Regardless if the one doesn't want to do their return with the other, they will need to know each other's SIN number and their Net Income for the return to be completed correctly. 

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
