In order for you to claim your daughter, she will need to file an amended return and remove the exemption that she has claimed for herself.
Important note: Since it is so close to the filing deadline, her amended return will not be processed in time for you to efile your return. You will need to file a paper return in order to claim your daughter as your dependent.
The article below has specific amendment instructions for 2016:
When she has prepared her amended return and is ready to mail Form 1040-X she should include the following forms:
- Form 1040-X
- The new (amended) Form 1040
- Any forms or schedules that were added or changed as a result of preparing the amendment
Please note that 1040-X cannot be e-filed - you will need to mail a paper return. It takes the IRS at least 2 - 3 months (and sometime up to 6 months) to process amended returns. Also, depending on whether the changes affect your numbers, you may also be required to file an amended return with your state.
The mailing address for you state and situation can be found at https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i1040x.pdf. Look under Where to File on page 14.
