I accidentally put that I could not be claimed as a dependent now my mother cannot claim what can we do? I have already received my refund.

I put could not be claimed as a dependent on my tax return. I do live with my mother and I am 20 years old. I already did my return, but she is getting cheated out of a good portion of money on hers, what can we do?

Are you a full time student?  If you weren't then she can not claim you if you made over $4,050.

If she can claim you then she will have to mail her return this year and you need to mail in an Amended 1040X return to fix yours.

I was a full time student during the year of 2016 but I also made over $4,050. My mother already submitted her return without claiming me. Is their anyway we can still fix his issue even though we have both filed now?

Well now you will both have to amend.
