It's not clear what you are trying to do. When you file as married filing jointly you file one tax return for the two of you together, from one TurboTax Online account. All of the tax information for both of you is in that one account. If you have another TurboTax account for some reason, besides the account that you used to file jointly, there is no reason to enter any information in the other account. It is not being used.

Why do you think you need to update your account?    If you filed a joint return---and did so correctly----then you and your spouse prepare ONE tax return with all of your combined information on that one Form 1040.  There is no reason for you to enter your information again into your own account.    Do you have the mistaken idea that you each file a joint return?   What did you enter on the first return?

Thank you 🙂

 

I have my old account when I was filing as single.  My husband filed us jointly under his account.I keep getting alerts stating my taxes are past due.  I was trying to update my old account to just state that my taxes were filed along with my husband....without having to go through the process of entering all my tax info.

There is no way to deactivate or update your account.  You can just ignore those messages.

There is no need to enter anything new into your old account.     Just ignore the marketing emails.  They are being triggered by your old account.   You cannot "tell" the old account that you already filed.
