It says that if for 1040 "Primaryclaimasdependent is not checked then the Primary SSN must not be the same as a Dependent SSN on another return filed for the same tax year.  Does this mean we cannot claim our daughter on our taxes if she's filing her own taxes?

 


Correct, if someone else files a return with the same SS number on their return as on your return and they file first your return will be rejected by the IRS.

If you are able to claim her as your dependent, then she should not have filed a return indicating she was not a dependent.  She needs to amend her return and claim she is a dependent.  You can file your return claiming her as a dependent but you will have to print and mail your tax return.
