On line 6a... There is a X but no care should be able to file me.

If there is an X on Line 6a that means you are claiming yourself (personal exemption).

Follow the steps below to change whether or not you will be claiming yourself (line 6a) 

1)    Sign into TurboTax Online

2)    Continue your return by click Taxes > Tax Timeline > Take me to my return. 

3)    Go to Personal Info > Personal Info Summary > and click Edit to the right of your name.

4)    Scroll down to Question 3 - Someone else can claim me on their tax return.  

               a.       If you select yes – line 6a will be unchecked (someone can claim you)

               b.      If you select no -  line 6a will be checked (no one can claim you)
