What is the name of your state? Wisconsin
In June of this year I was awarded physical placement of my son and the ex has no financial obligations to me for the child (No CS). She has not worked at all this year. She called to tell me she was claiming the child on her returns. The original court order states I get the child for even numbered years. She will not sign the 8832 (think thats the right form). Based on the fact that I have primary physical placement, she has no financial obligation toward child and had no job can she claim child on taxes? I believe she is going to do it under her boyfriends tax returns. Can she do that? I will not be able to get my taxes in before her - is there a proactive approach I can take so that my returns are not tied up forever?
Thanks
