Assuming you are referring to the AGI from the prior year that TurboTax asks you for when e-Filing, you would enter the AGI for however you filed your return in the prior year.

 

If you filed just you in the prior year, then use just your AGI. If you filed joint in the prior year, then use the joint AGI.

You can find your 2018 Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) by:

  • Looking at line 7 on page 2 of your 2018 Form 1040
  • Requesting a transcript of your 2018 tax return from the IRS. You can request your transcript online at the following link: Get Transcript
