Ok, then he must have claimed himself. The box must not have been checked saying someone will claim him as a dependent. In this case, you will have to either remove him as a dependent to e-file or paper file.
You could remove him as a dependent, e-file, and then amend your return to add him back on as a dependent. Either way, he will need to amend his return to show he was claimed as a dependent.
If you want to make changes or add a document to a tax return that has already been submitted, you should follow these guidelines.
- You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.
- You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.
- Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return.
- The refund calculator will start new at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due
- Only make changes to the areas of your return that need amending.
- You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment
