Can I remove the spouse from my account here?

Do I need to open my own account with Intuit to remove my husbands name so we can file separately?

Yes you need your own account.  He should start a new account too for himself.   You can not remove a spouse or switch the order of names.

 

TurboTax will not allow you to remove the primary taxpayer on the return. And you should not try to change the order of names.  If you were listed as the spouse and want to be the primary taxpayer now or delete the primary person, you will need to start a new return by logging out and starting over with a new account and new user name and password.  You will not be able to transfer from the prior year.
