Taxes
"P. Fritz" wrote in message ... "Krista" wrote in message news My ex sent me an email recently saying that he wants to set up something where we swap claiming Damia for our taxes each year. He insinuated that if he were to take me back to court over the matter that he would certainly win. I don't have a problem with that, but I do have a problem with the way he asked me about it. He has in the past threatened to take me back to court over things that he said would go his way that it turned out he was wrong on. And he's never *actually* taken me back to court, just used it as a threat to try to get me to capitulate without a "fight." So, I'm curious now, is there really a "standard" of CPs and NCPs alternating years claiming the shared child on their taxes? What's your experience? He only wants to claim one out of the three you have? Since the oter two are get you the HOH deduction, why be selfish? Probably because the other two are to a different man. Just my guess. lol T |

Taking $2500 of that to give him MAYBE a $500 child tax credit...? I'd rather just give him the $500 and not be out the other $2000 as well, but I'm sure he won't agree to that. -- Krista Mother of three Student of Psychology and Latin |

That's what *I* thought. I've heard over on alt.support.divorce about the
8332 form or whatever, that the CP signs to allow the NCP to claim the child. I was really just asking because I was wondering if my ex was making idle threats again or if he actually knew what he was talking about this time. -- Krista Mother of three Student of Psychology and Latin Zimm wrote: I think most people come to some sort of agreement based on how much time the child is with each parent. If it's 50/50, then they should take turns claiming said child on their taxes every other year. If child is with one parent 75% and the other 25%, perhaps they could do every two years or something like that. I don't think there is really a 'standard'. Zimm |
