Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The return is being rejected because the child can only be listed on one person's return.  Benefits for the child cannot be split between two returns.  If you are unmarried, you can choose who gets to claim the child and list the child on that individuals return only.  

 

As xmasbaby0, stated, you will need to remove the child from your return entirely before your return will be accepted.  

 

To do this in TurboTax, follow these steps:

 

  1. Sign in to TurboTax
  2. Select About Me
  3. Click the edit Icon next to my personal info
  4. Remove child's information
