I am now divorced but filed taxes with my x husband last year.  Does AGI on the 2020 taxes want my income or both combined if I am filing separately this year?

    Your 2018 tax return shows your 2018 Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) If you filed a joint return then the AGI is the same for each of you.

    Both you and our ex-husband should use the Jointly Filed AGI from the 2018 return.when filing your 2019 tax return. It is on line 7 on Form 1040.

    If you used Turbo Tax last year you should start a brand new account for yourself and not transfer from last year.  Online is only good for 1 return.  But you can use the same email address for 5 accounts.   How to start another return in the Online version
