You will have to print and mail your tax return since the IRS has already received a return with your SS number.
See this TurboTax support FAQ for how to print and mail a return when using the online editions - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/printers-printing/print-mail-return-turb...
The IRS will process your tax return regardless of the other tax return.
Within a year the IRS will mail both parties letters requesting proof of who was eligible to be claimed as a dependent or not. The loser of the investigation has to pay back any refund received due to the improper claiming plus interest and penalties.
If you are certain that you cannot be claimed as someone else's dependent, you can print sign and mail your own return and let the IRS sort it out. If you were claimed on someone else's return you will not be able to e-file this year; the IRS will not accept another e-filed return with your SSN on it unless your says you can be claimed.
You do not, however, say how long ago you moved out of that home. It is possible that you could be claimed -- here is the criteria that is used:
WHO CAN I CLAIM AS A DEPENDENT?
You can claim a child, relative, friend, or fiancé (etc.) as a dependent on your 2023 taxes as long as they meet the following requirements:
Qualifying child
Qualifying relative
If you can be claimed as a dependent, you can still file a tax return to seek a refund of federal and state tax that were withheld from your paychecks. But you will need to say in My Info that someone else can claim you as a dependent. The rule is if you CAN be claimed, you must say that on your own tax return.
