IRS rejection code IND-517-02 indicates that a dependent listed on your tax return (specifically the second one listed if it says 02) has already been claimed on another tax return, or they filed their own return without indicating they could be claimed as a dependent.

 

You change your filing status in the My Info section of the program.
