Can He claim my son on his tax return without asking me when i already claimed them both..?
My EX just text me yesterday and told me that he claimed our 2 year old son on his tax return.. HE never asked me if it would be ok.. i filed my taxes the day before i recieved his text and I had already CLAIMED BOTH kids (also a 4 month old baby).. THe kids live with me and have been with me 100% of the time.. i have been their sole provider (medical insurance, child care, food and all other expenses i provide).. he pays child support (1st payment was January 2008).. so last year he only contributed to $600 for both kids for the year.. i dont want to get in trouble with the IRS but i dont think he has the right no claim them since the kids live with me 100% of the time and im their provider.. (we were never married and we go to court next week to start custody battle)
WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT? WILL I GET IN TROUBLE WITH THE IRS? WHAT SHOUDL I DO? also how would i know who actually filed first he could have filed way before i did and just decided to tell me...

The IRS will reject his return is he e-files. He'd have to file a paper return. The IRS would then investigate the matter and award the exemption to whomever the LAW says is entitled.

From what you posted, you are the one who is entitled to claim the children. What he paid for support is irrelevant to the entitlement though you'll probalby get some clueless answers that say otherwise. Just ignore those rubes.

If he pushes the matter it could delay your refund but you WILL win as long as you play ball with the IRS if they contact you and ask for proof of your claim.

Don't let this butthead get to you! You've done NOTHING wrong though HE will if he tries to claim the children. That will be HIS problem to deal with with the IRS, not yours.

Depends who has custody. If you do then he can not and the Government will nail him.

You won't get in trouble with the IRS. If you claimed your children and filed electronically, then when he tries to file and use your son as a dependent, the system will kick his return out and he'll have to remove your son. If what you say about his lack of support is true, then you had every right to claim both children. When you go to court about custody, the judge should make some determination about who gets to claim the children. Then it will be in writing and there will be penalties if he doesn't follow the judgement.

If you have primary physical custody of the children and they lived with you at least 6 months - your ex cannot claim them without you signing over that right on a specific tax form - he may get a refund based on the improper info at first, but within a few months, he'll get a nasty gram from the IRS with a big bill = It happened to me - my kids don't live with me and I tried to claim one of them one year = got nailed by the IRS big time - took me 2 yrs to pay back the taxes and interest I owed -you don't have to worry about anything if your situation is like I described above

You have done nothing wrong unless you have a separation agreement that specifies he is entitled to claim the kid. No, you won't get in trouble. Just tell your lawyer and let him/her handle it. I am assuming you have a lawyer for court next week.

Probably what will happen is that the IRS will contact both of you explaining that a dependant can only be claimed by one person. You will write them a letter explaining why you claimed the child and the IRS will make a ruling.

He is the one in trouble. SInce the children do not reside with him he had no legal claim to them.

At some point (give it 6 months) the IRS may ask for a copy of the custody arrangement to determine which one of you has custody of the 2 year old.

Well, he can only claim them if he had thier social security numbers. If he had them, you said you filed taxes first, so I think he would be the one to get in trouble. He probobly said it just to be a turd.

As custodial parent you have first claim to your children as dependents. Unfortunately, if your dishonest ex-husband filed first, it is going to be a hassle for you. If your tax return is rejected, you will have the opportunity to file a Form 8836 Qualified Child Residency Statement.
The tax code is clear:
If a child is claimed as a qualifying child by two or more taxpayers in a given year, the child will be the qualifying child of the parent with whom the child lived for the longest time during the year.
If the Father files AFTER you his return will be rejected.
If you two are cooperating, you can wave your right to claim your son ( for example, if it gets the Father a bigger refund and you are sharing the money).
In the future, include an IRS form 8836 Qualified Child Residency Statement with your return, just in case the Father files first.
Good Luck.

Last year my my kids father filed one of my kids after i told him not. I let it go. All through out last year& beinning of this year i told him not to. I send letters, text messages, face to face, messages through his family & mines to him. I have been the one taken care & given the support for my kids, with the help of some family. We both are in different states now. I dont work at the moment right now, i go to school, & i live with family. Do he have the right to file them? If not, what can i do about it if he do after i told him not to?
