I used TurboTax in the past for my girlfriend and I and now we're married. Can two Single TurboTax tax files from 2016 be imported into a new 2017 Married tax file?

No. To begin a new joint return on TurboTax:

You will not be able to merge two previous TT account to start your new joint return.  You can transfer ONE of your 2016 returns into a new return, so choose the most complicated one.  The other spouse’s information needs to be entered manually.

When you enter your own information in Personal Info, you have to answer the question "Were you married?"  If you click the button for Married, then a drop down will appear that asks, "Do you want to file this return together with your spouse?"  Then you choose yes to file a joint return.  You would then enter your spouse's information into Personal Info.  Whenever you are entering income information there should then be a spot for you and for your spouse's income information.

No, sorry.

It is best to start over with a clean new account.  Or, pick one account that you want to be dominant, and then add the spouse to that account and change it from single to married.
