Why do I need to enter my spouse information when we are filing separately? If I don’t put his social security in I don’t get my taxes?

The IRS requires your spouse's Social Security number so that they can compare the two separate tax returns to make sure you are handling deductions properly. This is an IRS requirement, not a TurboTax requirement.
