Clarification....Did your father file a return? Are you sure your mother filed as married filing separate? If a separate return was filed, did your mother indicate that someone else could claim him as a dependent on their return?
What error message are you getting when trying to claim your father? If you are getting rejected due to duplicate social security number being used, you will need to print and mail your return as it will not be able to be e-filed.
