Question

My kid filed an amended return because erroneously submitted as not a dependent. However, my return keeps getting rejected. What do I need to do?

You won't be able to file electronically. You will need to file your return by paper. An amended return can take about 4 months or longer to process, and even when it has been fully processed by the IRS, it might not let you e-file for this year.

Should I request an extension since it will take time for the amended return to be accepted?

You will have to file your return by mail. You will not be able to efile. Your child's return is the one that needs to be amended.
