If you have not filed the 2024 tax return, in the My Info section of the program you will need to edit your personal information to change your filing status.

Yes, if you haven't filed your 2024 return yet. Refer to the TurboTax article How do I switch from filing jointly to filing separately? for navigation instructions.

 

If you live in a community property state, Please review the TurboTax Help article Married Filing Separately in community property states. me states have rules about how married couples share income if filing Married Filing Separately.
