@zaids You made a very common mistake often made by young inexperienced students, etc. who are filing a tax return. In My Info you were supposed to say that you can be claimed as someone else's dependent. You put your SSN into the system for this year, and your parents will not be able to e-file, even if they wait for the IRS to process your amended return. They have to file by mail. Even if your refund did not change when you amended, the fact that your Social Security number was used on a tax return already means no one else can e-file a return using that SSN this year.
For your parents:
When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses. Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
