How do I change my federal taxes to show that I was claimed as a dependent by my parents

[DoninGA · Accepted solution]

If you have already filed your 2022 tax return you will need to amend the return to change your dependency.

An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return.

Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-change-correct-return-a...

If you have Not filed the 2022 tax return and are using the TurboTax online editions, you need to click on My Info on the left side of the online program screen.  Edit your personal information to change your dependency.
