How do i get to the form in turbo tax to fix PrimaryClaimAsDependentInd

Yes, this rejection occurs when a taxpayer files their own return without checking the box to say that they are a dependent, and another taxpayer, usually the parent,  files a return claiming that taxpayer as a dependent. 

 

If you agree that you are a dependent, you can just check the box, and re-submit you tax return. Here's how to do that:

 

 

  1. Sign in to TurboTax Online and select Fix my return.
  2. On the Let's fix your return and then refile screen, select Fix it now or Revisit.
  3. Select My info, then Edit near your name. 
  4. Continue until you get to Let's check for some other situations. 
  5. Select the check box next to, Another taxpayer can claim me as a dependent on their tax return.
  6. Select Continue, or Continue to File and continue until you e-file your return. 
     

If this isn't what you want to do, reply back with more details of your tax situation.
