Facts: For TY2020, one spouse filed just their own information in March, 2021, but indicated their return was MFJ.
Other spouse has not filed TY2020, put that return (MFS) on extension to 10/15/21.
Is it best to either:
a) File an amended return with the first-to-file individual as the Taxpayer?
b) Switch the on-extension spouse to the Taxpayer position and amend?
Suggestions appreciated.

Are both spouses now willing to sign a joint return?
