How do I unclaim myself after filing and getting rejected for claiming myself?

My parents claimed me and I forgot they could one last year so I accidentally claimed myself and now turbo tax won’t let me go back and unclaim myself to file.

How do I unclaim myself after filing and getting rejected for claiming myself?

All you need to do is go to the personal info section, then select edit next to your name.  As you walk through, you will be asked "Can someone else claim you on their taxes"  you will answer YES.  This is how you "unclaim" yourself.
