Death of spouse

My husband passed away in 2020.  I filed a joint tax return for 2020.  However, it was rejected by the IRS, citing a pin number not recognized by the IRS.  I subsequently filed a paper return.  When I opened my TurboTax account this year, it still shows all of the information for my spouse.  Do I need to open a new account in order to file an individual return or can I still use the current account?

    Yes, you will need to create a new account when using the online editions or create a New Tax Return using the desktop editions and Not transfer the information from the prior year.
