If you have taken 3 doses of vaccination in childhood and then as you said, due to some reasons, recently took a booster 11 months back, then you won't require TT now. But if you haven't had proper vaccination in childhood and took only one shot 11 months back then you must take TT now and another shot 4 weeks later. 1st shot should be taken within 48 hrs and 2nd shot to be taken at least 4 weeks later but within 8 weeks.
