Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Just like @ColeenD3 stated above, your mom can claim you if you are under 24, IF you are a full-time student for at least 5 months of the year or if you are permanently disabled.  Otherwise, you should have claimed yourself.  

 

If you were not a full time student or disabled in 2019, you should file an amended return.

 

You won't be able to amend your tax return until the IRS releases the 1040-X Amendment form for 2019. The IRS estimate for issuing the 1040X form is mid February.

 

Additionally, make sure that your 2019 return was accepted in TurboTax Online or paper-filed through the mail.  

 

To prepare an amended return through TurboTax, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to TurboTax.
  2. Scroll down to Your tax return & documents (you may need to select Show), select 2019 and then Amend (change) return.
  3. Select Amend using TurboTax Online.
  4. Carefully follow the instructions. Don't worry if your refund changes to $0. This is normal on amended returns.
  5. When finished, we'll give you instructions for printing and mailing your amended return as amendments can't be e-filed.
