Can you provide a little additional information?  Are you getting an error message within the program itself or after you file as an e-File rejection message?

If your tax returns are being rejected by the IRS saying that a social security number is incorrect, you may have to print and mail your returns.  This would be an IRS issue, and there isn't anything you can do other than mail your return.  For more information see this TurboTax Help article:

Same issue here for dependant, Federal was e-filed and accepted, the State is saying it is invalid after PULLING from the federal and it won't let me fix it to boot.
