How to file a joint return with spouse?
In online versions of TurboTax, you can prepare your spouse or common-law partner's tax return at the same time as yours. This is called a spousal/coupled return. If you’ve already started your return but haven’t indicated that you want to prepare together, you'll need to start a new return and indicate that you want to prepare your spouse or common-law partner’s return together with yours.
To prepare your returns together using TurboTax Online:
- Sign in to your TurboTax account
- Select Start a new return
- Select the TurboTax Online product you wish to use, and indicate how you did your taxes last year
- On the Welcome step, select My spouse/partner and me under the question Who are you preparing this return for?
- Follow the prompts to enter your personal information. On the What's your marital status? step, select Married or Living Common-law
- Do you want to prepare your returns together?, select Yes
- Select Continue and proceed with completing your returns.
Yes you need to file a separate Foreign Income Verification statement
