I am filling as married separate. My husband did as well, but my return keeps getting rejected saying his social is connected to a return that has already been filled?

His refund was accepted and paid already, but i keep trying to fix mine and it keeps getting rejected. What can i do to resolve this?

We can't see your tax return, but I'd have you look at what you posted in MY INFO.

Are you sure both you and he filed as Married Filling Separately.

That error is occurring because the IRS thinks you are trying to include him on your tax return.

Please contact us again with any questions, and provide some additional details.

you can't claim him as a dependent and he shouldn't have claimed you as a dependent. Also, could he have accidentally filed as joint or maybe you are.
