You should not file a tax return if your husband filed married filing jointly. That means both of you are on the joint tax return.
The IRS should have rejected your return if you e-filed, because your Social Security or ITIN would be marked as e-filed with his return.
You also mention your immigration status.
Are you and your husband U.S. residents or nonresidents for tax purposes?
If you are a non-resident you would only be able to file a joint return if your husband is a U.S. citizen or resident alien and elects to include you (nonresident spouse) on a joint return.
The US allows a US citizen to file together with a nonresident spouse.
