What is the name of your state? TX
A friend of mine claimed his partner on his 2005 tax return. He asked the IRS if he would be able to and they said he could since he payed for more than 50% of his expenses for 2005. They are not together anymore, but now he is saying he did not give him permission to claim him and is threatening to pursue legal action. Was my friend in the wrong for claiming him? Is this considered identity theft?
