Hello
I appreciate all this advice. I would rather change his status than mine.
However, I am back to my first questions about how to do this in the turbotax desktop software I use.
This is what I THINK I am supposed to do (a previous post from an TT expert told me to do this)
- Start the Amendment Open the exact same tax file you already filed.
- Go to the Federal Taxes tab (or Personal in some versions).
- Select Other Tax Situations.
- Scroll down to Other Tax Forms and select Amend a Return.
- go to the section that says I need to change my return for a different reason
- select personal info and dependents
- I get the personal info summary
- I see his name and demographic information section. This can be edited.
- I the section on dependent. I can edit this section. However, it only asks if he has children or financially supports another person. It does not ask if someone can claim him. I do not see where I can make that change to say that I am claiming him.
This is my problem. I do not see where I can make that change using the TurboTax software.
I hope y'all can help me. This has worried me to a point of a migraine.
