Can child support be deducted on taxes?



Can child support be deducted on taxes?

Child support is not deductible to the person paying it and it is not taxable to the person receiving it. Child support is for the support of a child or children, it is not income to the parent getting it.

No, it can't. Only alimony paid can be deducted.
