Question

"You indicated on the Federal Information Wks that spouse could be claimed as a dependent of another" when filing "Married filing separately". I don't know how to fix.

If you want to change that she is NOT claimed as a dependent, then...

To edit your Personal Info:

  1. Open your tax return.
  2. Click on “Take me to my return” button.
  3. Click on “My Info” (left-hand column).
  4. Edit your spouse's name.

Please see screenshot below.

The question in the screenshot is only available in 'Married filing jointly' and not available in 'Married filing separately'. I changed my tax return to 'Married filing jointly', change my answer to 'No', and then changed my filing status to 'Married filing separately' and I'm still receiving the same error message. I don't know what to do.
