Questions about filing jointly

I have to file together with my husband this year. I put my w2's and his info here on turbotax
I've done everything and it shows me how much i get back from taxes
My questions are: they money i get back, is it our money ? Or just mine ?
Also, does my husband have to create an account and do the same thing as i did and he'll get his taxes back ?
Thank you

When you file a joint return you enter your income & your spouse.  The refund is from your joint income, it is from both of you. On a joint return you file one return under one account. If you have not entered your husband's income or other information, you need to go back through the return to enter his information. On his W2, enter it under his name.
