IND-517 - Next step after confirming dependent's information is correct?

[NickR540I]

Hi,

My return was rejected with the IND-517-01 code.  I confirmed my dependent's information is correct.  I've confirmed my dependent's own tax form has the "Someone can claim you" box checked.  What should my net step(s) be?  Appreciate any input, please.  Thank you!

Rejection code IND-517-01 usually means someone else filed a return and used your dependent's social security number. It could also mean your dependent filed a return and did not indicate that someone else can claim them as a dependent.

First, double-check the social security number used on the return.

If your dependent did not file a return, you will need to print and mail your return to the IRS.

Thank you.  IRS confirmed I need to print out and mail vs. e-file.
