It sounds like there isn't a divorce decree, but if there was, you'd need to follow that on who claims.
If the two of you can decide between yourself amicably who get to claim, since you are both the baby's natural parents, the IRS is OK with that. To fully comply, she would need to fill out Form 8332, but it isn't hard, and it mostly isn't questioned (unless you both claimed the baby).
She would win "tiebreaker" rules, having stayed with the baby the longest in 2008, if the two of you could not come to some arrangement.

The custodial parent gets the exemption by law. She can sign it over to you by completing a Form 8332 which you then attach to your tax return. That gives you the right to claim the exemption and the Child Tax Credit. She retains the right to file as Head of Household and claim the Earned Income Credit.
If she does not give you the Form 8332 (or an equivalent written statement) then you cannot legally claim the child.
Issues of support have no bearing on who claims the child as long as the CHILD does not provide more than half of her OWN support. |

YES, you can claim your daughter by agreement with the child's mother. She should fill out the Form 8332, which has to be filled out every year, it's only good for one year. You would be able to get the dependency exemption for her. You can get it at www.irs.gov Form 8332. |

You can't claim her unless her mom gives you written permission. She can use form 8332 if she wants to do that. Since the baby lives with her mom, her mom is the person who has the right to claim her unless she gives you written permission. She can't give anyone else permission to claim her, anyone else would have to meet the IRS rules for claiming her.
Your paying the bills doesn't give you the right to claim the baby without permission from the mom, though. But if she is willing, download the form 8332 at irs.gov and go from there. |

If she says it is alright then it is fine. There is a form 8332 ( I believe) she can sign over the right for you to take it for one year. |

1. Normally custodial parent can claim the child. Custodial parent can allow non-custodial parent to claim the child.

Yes, you can claim your daughter. The IRS has a form (sorry I do not remember the form number) that your wife could fill out that tells the IRS that she is not claiming the child.
You can call the IRS for the form number at (800) 829-1040 or visit the IRS web site at www.irs.gov. Look in the forms section. I would also look at Publication 17, the form number might be given in the publication. |

Who financially supports your daughter? That is the question. |
|

if you don't have a court ordered custody agreement that covers this then if you can produce reciepts that show you have been responsible for more than 50% of your child's support and your child lives with you at least 50% of the time, then you can claim her on your taxes.
The best deal so that you don't have problems with audits later is to talk this over with her mom and since her mom didn't work and as long as the grandparents weren't supporting your child and her mom ask if you can claim your child this year.
always save your receipts to back up your claims and go to www.irs.gov if you have any questions about what you can and can't do. |

The rule is whoever provides more than half the support or who the baby lives with more than half of the year is who claims her on the tax return. Generally, if you alternate, the IRS's computers aren't going to like that because they match SSNs to the parent who claimed the baby last year. |

Question is Who claimed last year? And then usually it is the parent who the child resides with unless the non-residing parent can prove that they financially support the child without assistance. I suggest strongly to hire an attorney (family law) to set up the legalities. BM's can be just that...but who is to claim this year? from what I can tell you should have claimed previous.More details are needed GooD luck |
