2018 Amended return question--0 amount change even after adding a dependent
I have a question.
My girlfriend just found out that she can claim me as a dependent. She went back in to her 2018 taxes via the Turbotax software download and added me as a dependent.
However, the amount never changed from 0. Now, she already claims both of our children. So does this mean: A. The maximum amount of refund from her taxes have already been taken from the two children and it doesn't matter that I am an added dependent because she is already maxed out, or B. Does this amount remain 0 because I am a non-relative (We had to put *Other* when talking about the dependent type) and the IRS needs to verify some things first before possibly giving us additional tax refund money? Or C. None of the above?
Help?
