Why is Turbo Tax saying my 10-year-old that lived with me for 10 consecutive years which I’ve claimed for 10 years is not my dependent?

You probably answered a question in MY INFO incorrectly.   Go back to MY INFO, click the child's name, and go through each interview screen slowly and carefully.  Read every screen top to bottom and answer correctly.

Make sure you have entered your child as a dependent in My Info, and that you have entered the child's Social Security number.    Careful— do not say that your child’s SSN is not valid for employment.  If your child was born in 2025 make sure you said he lived with you the whole year.  There is an oddly worded question that asks if the child paid over half their own support.  Say NO to that question.
