Child not showing as Dependent on Married Filing Single Return
Every year my spouse and I have filed Married Jointly. This year though married, we plan to file separately, as one of us would be in a very high tax bracket than the other.
We have a child who we have claimed as a dependent all these years. My child is in college and the 529 plan contribution and distribution that we use for our child is on my spouses name. Last year I earned more than my spouse.
We would like to have my spouse claim the dependent child this year on her Married Filing Single return. I went through all the questions, but it indicates that our child cannot be a dependent on her tax return. How can we fix this.
