So let me get this right, I have my son 208 days out of the year so I’m the custodial parent, but he has a higher AGI than me, but that only means he’s the custodial parent if we both shared closer to the same time/amount of nights?

I have him 208 nights he has him 157 nights and even though his AGI is more I’m still considered the custodial parent. Correct? They only use the AGI when we are closer to the same amount of time shared with the child, right? Kind of like a tie breaker?
