If you were claimed as a Dependent, and your return was rejected, you need to indicate in TurboTax that you are being claimed as a Dependent.

To do so, you will need to revisit the "My Info" section and click "Edit" next to your name. As you walk through the TurboTax interview process, you need to answer "YES" to the question "Someone else can claim me as a Dependent" and "YES" to "and this person will claim me on their 2018 Tax Return".
