    Accidentally did NOT file as Dependent
    I e-filed my taxes this year on Turbo Tax. I submitted it and was happy to see that I was going to get a decent tax refund.

    I still live at home with my parents and they pay for my college education. I was going over my e-file again today and realized I did not click the box to say "yes" where it says that a parent can claim me. I clicked the box to see what would happen and saw that I actually owe $150. I tried to resubmit it because I don't want to get into trouble with the IRS but it says I can't because it's already been accepted and the tax refund will be deposited in my bank!

    HELP! What do I do now? =(

    -Idiot college student.

    Yes, once your efiled return is accepted, you can not refile.
    You must file amended tax return Form 1040X.
