Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Sounds like you just got confused about the filing status you used last year, and actually did file a joint return.  Or maybe you started a MFS return and then changed and used a different account and actually filed MFJ from that account.    Did you enter all of the income from both of you on that MFJ return?  Does the total amount of income seem right for the combined income for each of you?  

 

If you filed late, the AGi might not have made it into the system (even if the transcript is showing it) -- so if the amount you see on the transcript does not let you e-file 2019, try "zero".  If zero does not work either, then you have to print, sign and mail the 2019 return.  And if you have to do that, both spouses need to sign.
