I only agreed to the 50% for him because my atty said it would be from the date I moved out, not from the day he finally signed the divorce papers (3 yrs after I filed for divorce- I left in August 2016- divorce paper signed Dec 2019).
You have to use a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO). Transfers subject to a domestic relations order are not subject to penalties but you have to do it correctly. Once the account rolls over to the other party if they then distribute money or anything else it's just like nay other... Read more »

Yes, they can take your tax refund.
Did you have a question or just wanted us to know?
I am his daughter. I started receiving back tax stubs about 6 months ago and just got a letter of intent to auction. She refuses to sell the property back to our family (we got the land in the Okalahoma Land Run) and refused to pay the taxes. Shouldn’t the resident of the property be responsible... Read more »
Sorry for your headaches.
I am assuming that the wife has a spousal homestead in the property. You may want to protect your interest by paying the taxes to prevent a tax sale. You would be entitled to contribution if the property later sells. While I agree that she should pay the taxes,... Read more »
Every check from every source must always be signed by all the people and organizations the check is made payable to.
When my husband and I filed Married-Joint for the first time we found out that he owed back taxes from a previous marriage. The taxes were from 2011! He was injured on the job so he had not been working from 2012 - 2016. So when we filed it took all of our tax return to put towards that debt. His... Read more »
It sounds to me like your husband must not have filed any tax returns for 2011, nor during the five years he says he did not work, which would trigger an IRS audit. If his ex wife also failed to file in 2011, she would also be in the snare with him. Sounds like she may have filed without him... Read more »
She has sold the house so shouldn't each of us pay there own taxes based on fair market value of the home at the time of death and how do you get the fair market value.
The fair market value is determined by an appraisal or by relying upon a Realtor you can trust to set the price to ask when selling the house. When the proceeds of the property are split between the heirs, they will each pay tax on their amount they received. Since there was no probate no estate... Read more »

According to the IRS, you can claim someone as a dependent if you provide for more than half of their support. But, this rule can be modified if there is a divorce decree or some other governing document.
Assuming that you meet the requirements, I should warn you that it gets more... Read more »
All work will be performed in TX without me ever traveling to OK. My understanding is that OK receives a copy of the 1099. If I am not responsible for OK taxes, I don't want to end up in a dispute with the OK taxing authority.
Congratulations, you have landed on a real "hot-button" topic - especially when Oklahoma is suffering from a budget crisis.
To be honest, I really need more facts to be able to advise you properly.
But let me give you something to consider. The statute-of-limitations starts to run... Read more »
There was a order of protection and my wife and her ex could not contact one another. The decree was final in 2017 and he was claimed by his dad in 2016 for 2015 when they were apart. My wife not her ex claimed their son in 2017 for 2016. Who is can claim their son for 2017?
I have worked on several of these cases in the past. Usually, the Judges do a fairly good job of making their instructions clear. If not, the Judge gets to see the case again. Not something they are anxious to do.
If it is not clear, I would have your wife's lawyer contact the ex-husband's... Read more »
We’ve researched definitions of what makes an employee. We know they’re not in stone but we feel they meet enough we should be employees. It’s for a Trivia game nationwide company & we host trivia games at bars. So: they tell us when & where to work. They supply the items needed to host a... Read more »
Welcome to the murky waters of employee vs. independent contractor.
Part of the problem is that you have several agencies - both federal and state - with overlapping jurisdiction.
In Oklahoma, you have the IRS, the OTC and the OESC just to name a few.
Not only that, but a... Read more »
I have found many online forms, but have no idea how to make them legally binding. How do I do this? Should I use an online form? Does it have to be notarized or something else? Thank you in advance!!
Be very careful. I have lots of folks who walk in with an online power of attorney. I estimate that about 20% have serious errors. These may be drafting, witnessing, signing, and creating unworkable situations. Most attorneys will provide service on a flat fee basis or may provide you with the... Read more »
Qualified medical expenses that are part of the deduction will remain the same under the new law. For 2018, you will be able to deduct expenses exceeding 7.5% of your AGI. Therefore, if your AGI is $100,000 you will be able to deduct all medical expenses that exceed $7,500. Anything under that... Read more »
If someone tells you that you won a lottery then demand cash it is a scam.
The 25,000 is the amount the person carried so they automatically said the taxes take half which left me with 12,500 is this tax deal true
With the limited facts you have given, it is hard to determine what is going on - but, I am suspicious.
First of all, it is common to have taxes "withheld" in a variety of transactions. These can include withdrawals from retirement accounts, winnings from slot machines, etc. And as an... Read more »

Sorry, but adultery is still a felony in Oklahoma, punishable by up to a $500 fine and/or 5 years. See 21 OK Statutes § 871. Most District Attorneys are not interested in prosecuting these cases however. They're already overloaded with more serious crimes.
You should see your lawyer... Read more »

Generally if you are the beneficiary of a life insurance poicy the funds are nontaxable. You do need to pay taxes on any interest that you receive.
My divorce papers do not specify a time limit on claiming the children and he lives with me.
Yes, you should, if you contribute over 50% of his support. But in an abundance of caution, check with a tax professional
