In order for you to claim her, you will have to mail in your return.  It would be best if she also amends her return to state that she will be claimed as a dependent, or there will be long processing delays with the IRS to adjust this.  But once she has claimed herself through e-file, no one else can e-file her as a dependent.  It can only be mailed in.
