Tax Return Rejection

Apr 17, 24 5:29

When I was helping my kids use FreeTax, I missed that one of them misclicked and said that nobody was claiming them as a dependent. So when i e-filed our return was rejected. I amended their return to fix that but I’m still getting an error after their amended return was accepted.

I’ve filed an extension for our taxes and paid what we owe. Do I just need to wait a little longer for the system to work its way out or just file by paper?

Same thing happened with my son last year. Although I use a tax preparer. He simply re-filed my son's 1040-EZ, correctly. Then re-filed ours. I was in the same boat as you, we got notification after 4/15 and had paid what we owed, in full.

A few months (June or July I think), we got a letter from the IRS stating someone had filed claiming to be a dependent, if it's true, nothing further needed to be done.
