Were you claimed on someone's 2020 return or just 2019?  If you are trying to file for yourself you may have to print and mail your return.  Why is it rejecting?  For the AGI or because you were already claimed for 2020?

Yes i was filed for both 2019 & 2020 . I keep getting rejected because i’m claimed as a dependent for 2020.

Then to claim yourself you have to print and mail.  But be sure you don't actually qualify as a dependent.  You do not get a choice.   You might actually qualify as their dependent.
