Need to change an answer to the question asking if anyone could claim me as a dependent from no to yes.

If you return has not been filed or has been rejected you can make this change without amending by taking the steps below.

  • Sign into TurboTax Online
  • Go to My TurboTax > Tax Timeline > Take me to my return (or if rejected, under some things you can do section, click on Add a state)

  • Go to Personal Info > Personal Info Summary > and click Edit to the right of your name.

    Scroll down to Question 3 - Someone else can claim me on their tax return.  

                   a.       If you select yes – line 6a will be unchecked, some else claims you

                   b.      If you select no -  line 6a will be checked, you claim yourself

  • If your return has been accepted, you will need to amend. Please see the following TurboTax FAQ for instructions.
