If i have a child and she turns 18 do i get to count her on my taxes even if i payed child support half a year |
If i have a child and she turns 18 do i get to count her on my taxes even if i payed child support half a year depends upon how the 18 year old files too... if the 18yr old claims themselves, and both parents try and claim them, ALL of them get audited by the IRS. if you payed support, for half a year; did it add up to more then 50% of that childs living expenses? how many months did that child live with you? those are the questions the IRS will focus on TAX INFO http://www.taxsites.com/index.htm... http://www.divorceinfo.com/taxes.htm... http://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc354.html... http://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc422.html... http://www.irs.gov/faqs/faq4-5.html... http://www.irs.gov/localcontacts/index.h... http://www.irs.gov/advocate/index.html... http://www.irs.gov/publications/p525/ind... http://www.fms.treas.gov/faq/offsets_chi... If the child lives with you, you can still claim her as a dependent. My parents are having a nice little war deciding who gets to claim me since they're divorced and each feel they have the right to it. Fun stuff! I'm 19 btw It comes down to if you can still claim her as a dependent. Generally speaking she'd have to be in college to still be a dependent after 18 (or 19, can't remember). Once she is 18 she is no longer a dependent unless she is still in school, including college, up to age 26 and you support her. |
