I have always claimed my daughter when my ex and I were together. When we split, he claimed her for his 2020 taxes without discussing it with me. To avoid any trouble, I did not claim her that year. He agreed that we would alternate years. I claimed her for 2021. However, I still have not received my tax return. What happens if he claimed her for 2021 too even with our agreement? I have proof via text where he acknowledged that 2021 is my year to claim her. I’m not sure if this has caused the hold up, but can I provide proof to the IRS in hopes of expediting my payment?
FYI, We do not have any legal arrangements in place.
