Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Your daughter can file a tax return to seek a refund of tax withheld, but must say on her return that she can be claimed as a dependent on someone else's return.

 

YOU can wait for your own return to be processed then amend to claim your grandchild,

 

How do I amend my 2019 TurboTax Online return?

 

The 1040X becomes available later in February, so you have to wait for it.  If your return is still being processed now, it would not be a good idea to amend yet anyhow.  Sending in an amended return while they are still processing your original return could cause confusion that would delay your refund for months.

 

Check back later for the 1040X.   AFTER your return has been fully processed.
