What is the name of your state IN
My husband and his ex-wife's decree states that they each claim their son every other year on their taxes. This year is our turn to claim him.
We received a call from her earlier this week asking if she could claim him this year and he said no, since we have been giving her extra monies and paying for items for him for school, etc. He recently started a new job and his old job's check paid the child support and his new job's check has paid the child support on the same week. Needless to say we are ahead again.
She has told us that if we even fall a week behind (which isn't even the case), that she has all rights to claim him.
Our question is: Is she right? I mean we aren't even behind and are in fact ahead and it is in the divorce decree (claiming the taxes). Is she full of it as usual?
