I claimed my daughter on my return but shouldn't have.Don't ask me how or why but I obviously wasn't paying attention when I used TT to file. She works and pays for her own Obamacare ins.
We both e-filed and each of us claimed her. Hers was rejected by the IRS who flagged her ss# as already being used on my return. My was accepted on 2/11 and I've been wtg on something from the IRS,either my refund or a letter.
So today I finally received the letter from the IRS telling me to send in my Form 1095-A(which I do not have-my daughter does!) and Form 8962. I know I don't want to do this. I just want to take her off of my tax return as a dependant so my daughter can claim herself and claim the 1095-A data that she received.
How do I proceed from here?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
Once you amend and remove her from your return, you shouldn't have to worry any more about the 1095-A.
You can amend returns that have been accepted by the IRS. If your return is pending, you won't be able to make any changes until it's accepted or rejected by the IRS. If you don't know your e-file status, we can help you check it.
Before you amend, make sure you have paper or pdf copy of your 1040. It is best to wait until you are sure you have all your reporting documents so you only amend once.
Select a tax year for specific amending instructions.
Keep in mind: You have 3 years from the date you filed your return (or 2 years after you paid the tax due, whichever is later) to file an amended return, which means you don't have to get it done by the April 15 filing deadline.
