Just change it under My Info when you fill out your return.

Here's some general info on getting married.  Did you both use Turbo Tax last year?

You can not transfer from or combine 2 returns or accounts.  Just pick the return for the spouse that has the most complicated return to enter or has any depreciation or business or  more investments.  Or use the account for whoever you want to be listed first going forward (by the way you can not change the order of the names).  Then add the other spouse's name, ssn and info to it.

You should usually  file a Joint return which is only 1 return combined for the both of you.  Make sure to stick with this one account for the future.  Just ignore the other spouse's account.

Nooo. I accidentally filled in the name of my Financil Institution where I should have filled in MY NAME. First Entertainment is bank name,

“NOT ACCOUNT NAME “ please help me to REMOVE First Entertainment and change it to my ACCOUNT NAME! The ACCOUNT number that I gave you is for MATTHEW ELSENBACH, NOT FIRST ENTERTAINMENT. 

THANKS
