Do I have to file again under my own TurboTax account if I already filed joint with my husband?

I got married in November 2020 so my husband and I filed our 2020 taxes joint this year (2021) under his TurboTax account, but when I log into my own TurboTax account it prompts me to fill out my tax information. So do I still need to file again on my own account or are we ok just filing under one of our accounts?

If you filed as Married Filing Jointly on the 2020 tax return there is nothing more you need to do.  You do not file a separate tax return for 2020 since you have already filed a joint tax return.

No.  Just ignore your old account.  A Joint return is 1 return combined for the both of you.
