What if I don't have an AGI 1040? I only filed a 1099 for unemployment last year jointly with my husband so how do i get passed this page asking me about a 1040?

If you filed a tax return, then you have an AGI for last year. You will need to get your IRS Transcript to find it if you can't find your return from last year or do not have access to it.

If you filed a joint return last year that was on a 1040. You filed a 1040. A joint return only has 1 AGI . You use the same AGI for each of you.
You need your 2020 AGI to efile 2021. The AGI is on 2020 1040 line 11. If you filed a Joint return you use the same AGI for each spouse.
If you didn't file 2020 or filed it later in the year or mailed it, then try entering 0 for the AGI. If that doesn't work you will have to print and mail your return.
