I filed tax return for my 18 year old, who is full time student, and earned under $1000 in 2018. Although she was not required to file, but I made her file using TurboTax online form so that she gets familiar with concept. (Earlier TT software advised that my kid should do her own taxes).
Fast forward, now I am about to file my return, and both my State and Federal returns got rejected. The reason stated is
--------
"A Dependent SSN in the return must not be the same as the Primary or Spouse SSN on another return where 'PRimaryClaimAsDependentInd' or 'SpouseClaimAsDependentInd' is not checked.
This return has been rejected by the IRS because you claimed a dependent as an exemption on your tax return, but this dependent has also filed their own tax return claiming a personal exemption.
…..you must delete this dependent.
If you still want to claim this dependent on your return, you must print and file by mail.

What am I missing?
