I'll be confused. Your client claimed the child and attached the signed 8332 from the other parent, releasing the dependent to your client, and it was bounced?
Why, because the other parent already claimed the child, in opposition to the signed release 8332?
If the signed parent filed and claimed wrongly, your client has to paper file and provide support to prove that your client deserved the dependent, such as divorce decree and support agreement.
That still doesn't guarantee that your client will win. It won't be the first time someone claimed improperly.
You have a couple of options. You can mail it in, and let the IRS fix it. You can remove the dependent, and have your client have his/her lawyer straighten it out.

Thank you for your quick response.
I came to the same conclusion.
It's going to be months before this is resolved but it is what it is.
Again, thanks,
