Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@Bap1Tap1 Amending her tax return will not enable you to e-file this year. Her SSN is in the system and anyone who tries to e-file with her SSN on their return is blocked from e-filing now. Even waiting for the IRS to process the amended return will not help.
The only way you can file and claim your daughter is by mailing your return. Print it, sign and date it in ink and mail it.
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.
