Can i take off a dependent if i already filed and got some money back?

Yes. But you will have to file an amended return for that. Be aware also that when you file the amended return, you will be returning some of that refund you already received, back to the IRS. Also, an amended return can not be e-filed. The IRS says so. You have to print it, sign it (both the 1040 and 1040-X) and mail it to the IRS. Amended returns can take 16 weeks or longer to process.

Before you click the AMEND button and start the amending process, make sure you print out of copy of your return as originally filed first. You should also make a backup of the .tax2017 file and the PDF file so that you will have them if you mess up during the amending process and need to start over.
