I am a father in Washington state. In me and my Ex's split up the commissioner over our case awarded us tax exemtions and this is exactlly how it is worded except for my kids names,
"It is ordered that the father shall be awarded both tax exemtions for the tax year 2009 there after the mother shall be awarded child 2, father child 1. If the parties have a new child that child shall be awarded to father in 2010 and even years and mother on odd years."
My question is if my ex wife did not hold a job at all in the year 2011 can her current boyfriend claim my children that she is supposed to claim this year on his taxes when I am not behind on my child support? I pay $868 per month for 3 children.I am asking cause the way it sounds to me and all the people that I have talked to is that only the mother or father can claim them on there taxes.
