We are filing taxes jointly. At the end I am asked if my spouse filed a return.

I’m at the "File" stage of the tax filing process. We are filing jointly. It is asking me if my spouse, the secondary name, filed returns for 2019 and 2020. We filed jointly for both of those years as well. Should I put "yes"?

Yes, you will need to answer YES as the software does not keep this information in your computer, so it will ask you information on prior years.
