A 17 yr old filed taxes and Put the first name he "wants" to be called and social security # of his given name.  The IRS accepted this return.  Child stated that he was a dependent on parents return. 

Parents take him as dependent on their return and we filed with the correct name, and parents return was rejected because SS number has been used. 

So I am to:

Amend kid's return with the correct name ? Even though it has been accepted? I say yes, but that does not mean much; hence, my reaching out.  Will have to go by paper return, as it involves Social security ( That is what I understand)

Then when that goes through send parent's return in as is with correct name/social Security match ? 

Thanks in advance.
