You misunderstood what you need to do to re-file.  You need to go to My Info and click edit by your name.  Then go through the screens to the question that asks if you can be claimed as a dependent on someone else's tax return.  Say YES.   

 

Then you can re-file.

Go to My Info click EDIT by your name

Then scroll down to #3 Can someone else claim you?
