Get your taxes done using TurboTax

There is nothing to fix. The standard deduction for a person who can be claimed as a dependent on another person's tax return is generally limited to the greater of $1,050 or the individual's earned income for the year plus $350 (but not more than the regular standard deduction amount, generally $6,300). 

For more information, please see page 24 of IRS Pub 501: Exemptions, Standard Deduction, and Filing Information.
