Retirement tax questions

...AND

.......are you a dependent yourself? 

............Or do you have a child old enough to work, or is in college who may have filed a tax return?

 

Sometimes a dependent mis-files their own tax return, indicating they are not a dependent, when they actually are.   That will create a SSN e-file conflict between the Parent's and Child's tax file submissions, depending on who filed first.
