My 3 year old daughter was abducted by her non-custodial mother 1.5 years ago. On the court order, the mother is not to claim the daughter as her dependent nor for any child tax credit. Last year, however, she did claim the daughter. As such, my taxes were returned back to me and I was unable to file them, since my daughter was claimed on someone else's taxes. I refilled my taxes with the IRS, showing the documentation and the situation I am in. I haven't heard back from the IRS. What should I do? What should I do this upcoming year to no be in this situation again?
