AGI entry for 2019, married filing jointly.

When I got to the form in Turbo Tax for the 2020 married filing jointly, it asks for the AGI for myself & my wife even after I check off that we are filing jointly. How to I fix that. We did not file with Turbo Tax in 2019. Filed electronically with a local CPA.

Please help.

Thank you.

The 2019 AGI is the same for the both of you if you filed the 2019 tax return as Married Filing Jointly. 

On the 2019 federal tax return the 2019 AGI is on the Form 1040 Line 8b.

Where in the form did you see that they asked for both you and your wife's AGI?  My husband and I filed separately last year and jointly this year and I never got that selection??

In TurboTax online,

  • Sign back into your account and select Pick up where you left off
