How can I change my marital status before sending my taxes in?

Got rejected for wrong marital status. She claimed married filing separately.

To change your filing status, you need to revisit the MY INFO section of TurboTax.  Select Revisit underneath Your info and walk through the interview questions.  When you come to the About Your Household screen, choose that you are Married and plan to file separately.  Next, you will need to enter your spouse's information.
