Long story short, I got my years mixed up.
My ex-spouse and I have a tax agreement where we alternate years with him getting the even numbers and I get the odd numbers.
I got my years mixed up and didn’t claim my son last year, so neither did his father.
Well, this year I claimed him on taxes.. and already got mine back in February. His father just tried to file his and claim our son because it is his year and couldn’t.
He talked to his accountant, who said I could file an amendment to move my son off this year’s taxes to last year’s taxes because neither of us claimed him as a dependent.
So I’m posting here to ask if that is even a possibility or true.
This is the first time I’ve ever done anything remotely wrong so I am panicking!
