Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

TurboTax asks me questions (in some sections) about me and my spouse, as if I’m still married, but I’ve been divorced for two years? Did I do something wrong?

In my personal info, it says that I’m divorced, and I file as single, like I did last year. Maybe it’s just the TurboTax interface that kept my spouse’s name and that still thinks I’m married?

You should not be using an old account that was previously used for joint returns.  It is too hard to remove the "spouse stuff."  Start a new account with a new user ID to file as Single,

Divorced is not a filing status.  Go back to My Info and select Single.

If you still receive questions concerning your ex they you need to create a new account with a new User ID - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/online/

I never filed a joint return, I only ever filed separately or as single

No...lol in my personal info section, my marital status should be divorced. However I do file as SINGLE, my filing status is different from my marital status.
