Can I choose to file jointly (married) this year if the previous year I have filed separately with my spouse? So far, both of us have not filed our tax returns.

Past 2 years we have filed separately.  However this year we would like to file jointly to get a better tax return.  We were wondering if we can just choose to file jointly for this year's tax return? or is there a form or process that we need to go through to change from separate to joint?  We have not sent our tax returns yet.
