Filing

You can do the return of the lower income spouse/partner first, and put an estimate of the other spouse/partner’s income to complete the return. Finish the second spouse/partner’s return, then go back and put the correct number into the first return. When everything is correct, you can file both returns.

 

You can also prepare your returns together and have TurboTax automatically add the info to both your returns. In TurboTax Online, this would mean starting a new return. In TurboTax CD/Download you can add your spouse to your existing return in Forms mode.
