Teenager filing taxes

[adgregorie]

i filed my taxes and got eic credits on my return. My teenager filed her on her own turbotax account she stated that she was claimed as a dependent on another account how is this going to effect me? Or her?

This will not affect your tax return at all. Your child filed the correct way. A dependent taxpayer is allowed to file his or her own return.

thank you i've heard so many things and i knew she had to file but i was worried that i had messed up by claiming her. But thank you.
