My childs father claimed my child on his taxes without my permission!!? |
I did not work in 2006 so i can not file her, and im wondering how do i go about letting the irs know that he filed her without my permission.. Call the IRS if she does not live with him he can not claim her as a dependent regardless if he pays child support. Its called tax fraud!!!!!!!!!! If you had no income - then who supported your child? If it was your child's father, why not let him claim the exemption? It can't do YOU any good, if you're not filing taxes anyway... If you have nothing to claim what's the harm? Do you have a court order? Did he help you and her financially? Just call the IRS you have a computer right? www.irs.gov click contact us If you did not work and had no income there is nothing to stop him from claiming her on his taxes. Although technically he should have written permission from you to claim the exemption, there won't be a cross-check on that since you are not required to file a return. More importantly, you have no way of verifying that he actually took the exemption. He could be winding you up with the claim and you're taking the bait hook, line and sinker. The IRS will NOT discuss his return with you so it's impossible for you to verify his assertion that he took the exemption. You should be a little more graceful with this and allow him to take the exemption since you can't benefit from it anyway. Stop being so spiteful; he is the father of your child after all. The more resources he has, the more likely he is to stay current on his child support; keep that in mind as well. Addendum: If you and your daughter lived with your parents and if they are entitled to claim you and / or your daughter as dependent(s), they should do so. See IRS Pub 501 for full information on whether or not they can claim you and / or your daughter on their return. If they are entitled to the exemption, the IRS will flag both returns for followup and request proof of the claim for the exemption. They will then award the exemption to the appropriate party and bill the other for any taxes due as a result of the denial of the exemption. Again, they will not discuss the details of the tax returns with anyone other than the taxpayer that filed the return. They will only let the parties that claimed the child know if the exemption was allowed or not. More information: The child's father may be entitled to the exemption after all. If you lived with your parents and they claimed you as a dependent, you cannot claim your child as a dependent on your tax return. Under the tie-breaker rule in Table 6 of IRS Pub 501, if both your parents and the child's father claim the exemption, the child's father will be awarded the exemption since he is a parent. Also see page 13, left column, Example 1. You cannot stop this. go on line at irs website, or call 1-800-555-1212 and ask for the 800 number for the IRS past practice and common sense Been there, done that. It sucks. First, he cannot legally do that without a court order. There is a chance it is part of the court order. I recommend you check that first. Then, what you do is have your parents file and claim your child. WHEN (not if) that is rejected, they file an appeal with the IRS. They will have to provide proof that they supported the child or he lived in their home. Additionally, they can claim you, even if you are an adult, and you live in their home. Any decent tax person should be able to help you through that for a little bit of nothing. Also, he cannot claim the child based on being a parent if the child lives with your parents or in a home paid for by them. There is no blood relative "trump" card he can play. |
