I can't file because I accidentally hit the wrong year for my sons DOB. I fixed it but now it says I can't use the same social security number. SEIC-F1040-506-01

Since it rejected my first attempt to file because of this error how is it that I am using the same social security number twice? I don't understand how I am supposed to fix this.

The IRS issues rejection code SEIC-F1040-506-01 to inform the reporting taxpayer that a child they are attempting to claim Earned Income Credit (EIC) for has already been claimed for the EIC on another return.

Please refer to the below TurboTax FAQ for instructions on what to do if someone has claimed your dependent.
