efile rejection code IND-517-02

[llclark25]

Efile rejected due to other taxpayer filing separate return and claiming themself when they should have marked box of being dependent of another.  That taxpayer has now filed superseded/amended return to correct their original filing.  Can rejected return now be resubmitted for efile?

Unfortunately no. You will need to file a paper return because there is no way to get around the e-file system once your dependent has already filed and claimed themselves.  Paper file your return with your dependent included.

This article will give instruction on how to print and mail your return.

Thank you. The notification I received from TurboTax did say it could be resubmitted by obtaining an IRS PIN.  Here is what it said:

”To electronically file with this duplicate condition, an Identity Protection Personal Identification Number (IP PIN) will be required. If you wish to get an IP PIN and you don't already have an account on IRS.gov, then you must register to validate your identity”
