@mlgudis If a parent enters a child's name and answers the interview questions such that the child is not a dependent, Turbotax does something stupid and asks for the SSN even though they are not a dependent. It is not needed in this case. if you have custody more than half the year and you have not agreed to share the dependent exemption, your ex does not even have to list the child on his return, and the simplest thing to do is go into the personal info page and delete the dependent.
