I filed a joint return last year because my husband passed, all the information from last year keeps popping up. How can I fix it? So that it is in my name.

How do I edit information from last year?

You will need to create a new account with a new User ID.  The prior account was based on you filing as Married Filing Jointly and removing information is not effective.

Sorry for your loss.  My husband died in 2023 too.    I filed 2023 as normal Joint. For 2024 i filed as Single on a new return and did not transfer from 2023.  If you are using the Online version you need to set up a new account for yourself and not transfer from 2023.
