Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, The Form 8332 can't be e-filed. The non-custodial parent must have signed the form and then mail it to the IRS along with the transmittal Form 8453 within 3 business days from the date the return is accepted. The 1040 income tax return can still be e-filed.  On the 8453 you simply check the box Form 8332, Release/Revocation of Release of Claim to Exemption for Child by Custodial Parent.

 

The forms should be mailed to:

Internal Revenue Service
Attn: Shipping and Receiving, 0254
Receipt and Control Branch
Austin, TX 73344-0254

 

I hope that helps.
