If someone else claimed your dependent, and has already e-filed, you will have to file a paper return in order to claim the dependent. The IRS will then contact you and the person that already claimed your dependent, ask for information, and determine which one of you has the right to claim the dependent. If you want to go ahead and file your return electronically, you will have to do so without claim the dependent.
