My rejection says to review the "description field" to identify which dependent is causing the rejection. Where do I find the "description field"? I can't find it.

Did you claim more than one dependent? Look carefully at the rejection notice----there will be a "01" "02" etc in the notice. Then look at the dependents as shown on your Form 1040. 01 is the first name, 02 is the 2nd one, etc. etc. That way you will know which dependent's SSN was used already on a return. Do you have any teenagers or students who may have filed their own tax return and did not say they could be claimed as dependent?

Would the rejection code be IND-507-01? And would the affected dependent be number 1 on my tax return? The email I was sent states "Your federal tax return was rejected", then below it states "What happened" and this is what I was sent: IND-507-01 - 'Dependent SSN on a previously accepted return for the same tax period. Etc.

Can you help me please. Thank you.

Code IND-507-01 means that a Social Security Number on your return has been used by someone else.

the 01 may refer to the first listed on your return.

How do I fix e-file reject IND-517-01?
