What is the name of your state? TX
My wife's children have lived with us for many years now. They are currently
17 yrs and 18 yrs old. We have already filed our taxes and have claimed
both boys because they lived with us in all of 2006 and they still do.
The ex-husband wants to LIE to the government and make the boys appear to
be "independent" and therefore he wants to get them FREE SCHOOL.
We will not lie on our taxes. And we have told him this. But he says he will
take us to court because he has every right to claim them because he paid
for more than 50% of their expenses. He may have paid more than 50%,
we're not really sure. It's probably about even.
Does he have the right to claim them even though they did not live with him?
