You can only use one TurboTax account, so if you each had an account last year, you will need to decide whose account you will use this year, and the other person will need to manually enter his/her information, including last year's info.

The other account information can't be forwarded

Sorry, 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 or return 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.
