Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hello,

I am sorry your return was rejected due to the dependent being claimed on anothers return.

 

If your dependent was claimed when they should not have been, you can ask the other party to amend the return. I fthey will not, in order to file your return on time, you will have to file on paper. Choose file by mail in Turbotax.

 

The IRS will contact both parties to determine thosis entitled to claim the dependents.You would have to provide documentation  per your divorce agreeement tothe IRS .  If the IRS determines that the other party should not have claimed the dependent, they will adust their return and penalties and interest would apply if it results in an amount due.
