Get your taxes done using TurboTax

It is not an issue of identity theft - you stated that you claimed her on your return already.  I'm sure our Champ @Mike9241 just misread your original posting when answering.

 

To answer your question, yes, she will need to paper file her return.  You should also note the requirements for a dependent to have to file a return at Do I need to file my own taxes if I'm a dependent? and whether or not you could truly claim her as a dependent at Who can I claim as my dependent?
