My divorce decree states that I get to claim my son for the tax year 1999
"provided he substantially complies with the child support order".
On Jan. 30 I called my ex wife to get our son's ss# and told her I needed her to sign form 8332 and that I was going to file that day on my home pc, she said ok and gave me the ss#. On Jan. 31 I called her and said I would be stopping by to get her to sign the form, she replies that she is not signing it because I owe her $800 in back support, $800 that the IRS is withholding from my refund. She said she is claiming him.
I filed my return on the 30th before she told me this, what can I do now? can I claim him?
