issue was she checked, "cannot be claimed as dependent" - she unchecked and re-filed amended return.  I refiled too at same time.  but it got rejected again.  should I have waited some time?

No matter how long you wait---you cannot e-file now.   Her SSN is in the system and it will not change for many months.  The only way for you to file and claim your daughter is to file by mail.  Print, sign and mail it.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.

Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.

You will not be able to e-file. You will have to paper file. Even though she amended, it will not reset the IRS system allowing you to e-file.
