does he need to put her in his taxes even though ive had her all year and ive supported her myself ,we never married and i already claimed her in mines ... he claims he cant file an extension without putting her down
A:
Family Law Attorneys are really not authorized to provide tax advice. My advice would be to contact the IRS. You can find their phone number at IRS.gov.
If I was you and I had already claimed your daughter on your tax return, you supported her and did not receive child support from him, I would probably let him figure it out with the IRS. But again, please give the IRS a call.
If you need more information, you should contact an experienced family law attorney.
Hope that helps!
