Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Why do you want to do that? It makes no difference to your refund or tax due. And the IRS prefers for you to stay consistent from one year to the next when you file joint returns. Switching the order of the names can cause confusion and delays in processing your tax return.
If this is your very first joint return, you can clear it and start over. You cannot just swap the names with each other because the accompanying data that was entered will not move with the names. If you want to clear and start over, then you can do that, and enter the "primary" tax payer first when you begin to enter information in MY INFO.
