What is. Code IND 517-01

My return was rejected bc one of my dependents already used...they say they werent?? How do i know which one to drop?

IND-517-01 - A Dependent SSN in the return must not be the same as the Primary or Spouse SSN on another return where 'PrimaryClaimAsDependentInd' or 'SpouseClaimAsDependentInd' is not checked.

My return was rejected bc one of my dependents already used...they say they werent?? How do i know which one to drop?

The rejection code IND-517 is used when a dependent's social security number has been claimed on another return as a taxpayer or spouse.  Often this happens when a dependent files their own return and does not indicate that someone else can claim them as a dependent.

To determine which of your Dependents was already claimed, you will need to look at your full Reject Code.  The last two digits of the Reject Code tells you which Dependent it was based on the order they are listed on your Form 1040

For example, Reject Code:

  • R0000-507-01 - The First Dependent listed on your Tax Return was already Claimed as a Dependent
  • R0000-507-02 - The Second Dependent listed on your Tax Return was already Claimed as a Dependent
  • R0000-507-03 - The Third Dependent listed on your Tax Return was already Claimed as a Dependent

Here is a link about what to do if someone has claimed your dependent.

This reject frequently occurs when the dependent's SSN on this tax return was present as a dependent on another tax return, or the dependent already filed a return without indicating they would be claimed as a dependent on another return. 

 

Try These Steps.

1. Verify the dependent's Social Security Number (SSN) matches his or her Social Security Card. 

2. Verify the SSN is not the same as the taxpayer's, spouse's, or other dependent's SSN. 

3. Verify the SSN is unique to this tax return and is not used on any other tax return. If the SSN is not correct or unique, correct the dependent's SSN and resubmit the return electronically. If the SSN is correct and unique to this tax return, you cannot e-file the tax return for the current tax year. You must print and file the return by mail.
