Q: My children's mother is claiming my kids at her house and at her mothers house. It is illegal to do so right?
I have 4 daughters by one mother. Two of them live with her, the other two live with her mother. I recently learned that both my ex and her mother are claiming all 4 of them at both locations. I have been paying child support for them for years and I am now paying arrears. How do I begin to fight this without money for an attorney?
A: I am not sure what you mean by "claiming". For tax purposes? For support calculations for child support? Try resubmitting your question.
