What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ohio
I paid 100% of child care costs up till June first then at the hearing Judge ruled me and my ex would split the costs equally. Since then I still have been paying the majority of the costs because the EX refuses to pay. He does pay some, but not 50%, more like 20%. This is my ex's year to claim the minor child on taxes. How does that work? I relly don't know. Can I claim the expenses I had paid this year, and he claims what he has paid? Or does he get to claim all of the money even though he's not paying. Sorry if this seems like a silly question. Thanks
