I have a 1099-R to enter for my husband on our joint return. But it keeps saying enter Elizabeth's 1099-R. I need it to say my husbands name. How do I change this?

On the same screen for selecting the type of Form 1099-R that is being reported are selections for indicating who the form belongs to when filing a joint tax return. See screenshot

Start the 1099R over.  Do you get this screen?

You can also just edit the existing 1099-R entry and respond accordingly when TurboTax asks you to Verify the Owner of This 1099-R.
