After you file

If the information is correct then your dependent has been the victim of identity theft.  You have a whole lot of different things you should do but it starts with printing the return and filing it by mail.  You won't be able to efile and claim that dependent.

 

This article has all the links you'll need to deal with identity theft.  The sooner you get started the sooner you'll be able to figure out how bad it is.

 

Sorry,  Good luck.
