I am so sorry. In this case, you are correct. You will have to mail your return in. You can try asking him to amend his return but regardless of whether or not he is cooperative you will want to paper file your return. The amend process can take weeks, even months. Follow these instructions to print and mail your return:
Everything you need to mail in your return will print out for you. To prevent identity theft, TurboTax recommends that you mail your return from a post office or give it directly to your mail carrier.
Once you file, your return will be processed. If the other party is uncooperative, the IRS will contact both of you to figure out who gets to claim the dependent. The losing party will then be liable for any additional taxes, penalties, and/or interest as a result of the false claim.
