Q. Turbo tax has not allowed me for 2 yrs stating I said the other parent is claiming. How do I fix this?
A. Stop saying the other parent is claiming.
That question is part of the dependent interview. This is a common error when unmarried parents live together. If you and the other parent live together, only one of you can claim the child for any tax benefit. The TurboTax interview is confusing (it's designed for divorced parents, who are allowed to split the child). The second parent should not enter the child, at all.
