M wife mother wants to claim my child for taxes this year,can i press charges? If your child lived with your mother for over half the year, then she might be able to. If the child lived with your for over half the year, then you are probably the one with the right to claim her, but if not, then you can't. No, you can't press charges in any case. But if two or more people claim the same dependent, the IRS will disallow the exemption for whoever isn't eligible to claim the child. There are a list of rules the IRS uses if more than one person is eligible to claim the child, to decide who gets the exemption. The first rule is that if a parent is eligible, they get it, so if you both are eligible, then you would get the exemption rather than your mom. No, you can't press charges but you can notify the IRS, or at least tell her that you will notify the IRS and she will be audited. That should deter her from claiming your child as a dependent on her taxes. She can only claim the child if the child is living with her. You'd have to tell the IRS if you are also claiming your child (if your child is living with you). If she makes false claims that is fraud. She has the right to do anything she wants to do, even if it's illegal activities. What you can do is report her to the IRS once she claims your child as a dependent. She has the right to claim your child if the following apply: 1.The child lives with her more then 6 mos out of the year. 2 She pays the bulk of the support ( usually if # 1 applies then so does # 2) **She can not file if it was written in the divorce degree that you claim the child for taxes even if #1 -#2 apply If you both file taxes and claim the same child a "Red Flag " will go up with IRS and you both may be audited You can notify the IRS about her intentions and let them take it from there. In the mean time file your taxes the way you intended I speak from true life experience. My ex tried to claim and lost! I was the custodial parent receiving 0 support. No you can't press charges. You don't need to. If you are entitled to claim your daughter, your mother can't claim her anyway. If you both claim her, the IRS will disallow her claim after you provide documentation that you have the right. If you are not eligible to claim you daughter, why do you care? |
