You need to File a paper return and mail it in. You will both get notified that your daughters SSN was used twice, and you will be requested to submit proof that you were entitled to claim him on your return. Respond to this notice immediately. The IRS will determine who was qualified to claim her. If any refund was issued to the party who was deemed unqualified , they will owe the overpayment plus interest and penalties For more information call the Internal Revenue Service at 1-800-829-1040

Kind of hard reading your question. I'm guessing that someone claimed your daughter as an exemption; is that correct?
If so, you can't e-file. You have to file a paper return. The IRS will then contact both taxpayers that claimed her (and I know for a fact that that's what they told you, so don't say they're not helping) and request proof of the entitlement to claim her as a dependent. Assuming that what I think you are saying is correct, you will win that and the IRS will process your return.
It's possible that someone fat-fingered the SSN of a dependent. The IRS just checks to see if the SSN was already used to claim a dependent. Those are usually cleared up fairly quickly when they match up names and numbers though.
Whatever the cause is, it will delay your refund. There's nothing much that you can do about that. It could be human error or fraud, there's no way to tell at the moment. The IRS will sort it out but it does take some time.

So what? Claim her on your tax, if you are filing this year, it will have to be up to the IRS to figure it out, If she is your dependant, Don't worry about what will happen. You know what should happen, If it doesn't turn out that way, what ever will you do? Suffering a little, is not the end of the world.

a. as the sole provider, you can file your own taxes and have her as a dependent.
b. if you were claimed as a dependent on your parent's return, she should also have been claimed by your parents.
c. if she wasn't claimed, your parents would have to refiled.
d. if they claimed her, they may be able to get eic, but it depends on their income as to eligibility.
e. if they refile, you need to determine wqhich is best method for filing. either you file as head of household and not be claimed by your parents, or let them claim both of you.
figure the taxes both ways and use the one which gets the most back from taxes as refund. then decide how to divide the money, if they are agreeable to that.
you may want to use a tax program to figure it all up and go from there, if you don't go to have them prepared by a tax preparer.
best of luck..

There are many crooked people out in this world. You still have to file your taxes so that you are not penalized. Report to the IRS and to the Police so that you will have a file on record.
Do you know who claimed your daughter. They will definitely asked you.
GOOD LUCK!!!

Is the someone the other parent ?
Could also be ID theft, take her ID / birth certificate to the IRS office and document your situation.
Going in person is better than just a phone call.

the custodial parent, or the person the child lived with most of the year, has the right to claim the dependent- even if you provided most of the support. so if thats the case, you wont win.

You'll have to wait for the IRS to sort it out.
People are "like that" (taking things they shouldn't) because they're greedy?
