Get your taxes done using TurboTax

A follow up question. In 2012, I signed an amended separation agreement stating that once my son turns 18, that we would rotate my daughter as a tax deduction every other year.  My daughter turned 18 in May 2019.  Although I was eligible to claim my son last year, I didn't because he benefited more than I did.  So technically, 2019 is the first year we would 'rotate' my daughter.  My daughter lives with me, I pay all of her medical, and I will be paying for her college.  The second year we would 'rotate' my daughter would be 2021 and then I would be done with the agreement.  Now my ex is refusing to provide my daughter with her funds from her 529 plan.  That being said, will the courts overturn the amended separation agreement in favor of me getting the tax deduction, especially since I am providing for her and my ex-husband is not?
