Quick Advise: Who Claims the Kids on Taxes? - 01/31/00 03:06 AM
Hi all. Oops, ADVICE, I got rattled.<P>My Ex just called wanting to know if he could claim one of our two girls on his taxes this year. <P>I claimed them last year, and have sole custody. He does pay child support--was irregular last year and owes a substantial back support he's paying off a little at a time.<P>He said many people trade off claiming the kids on taxes. Well, of course, but does anyone see a reason I SHOULD let him claim one of the kids? His current wife has 3 kids though claiming status is unknown to me.<P>Thoughts, anyone?<p>[This message has been edited by Lucks (edited January 30, 2000).]
