Similar to the original poster but different. My husband and I are married and file jointly. His extramarital affair resulted in a child who is almost 4 years old. In court he was ordered to pay child support, she got full custody and he was awarded visitation and they both are supposed to provide medical coverage pay 50/50 medical expenses and claim her every other year. Our return was rejected electronically because she already the child on a year she shouldn't have. He text her to adk her amend it but she got combative, said she didn't give a f*#k what the order said and she will claim her every year no matter what. She then said she would get a restraining order if we contact her again.
My husband is not the custodial parent and hasn't ever met his daughter because the mother always threatens restraining orders or tries to physically attack my husband whenever there is any communication. A lawyer has sent a letter to her informing her to sign and return it but she hasnt really agreed to do so yet. We only have a few days left to file. We have said we will take her to court for contempt and have a judge force her to sign but will it end up working out that way if my husband hasnt had any contact with the child. The mother believes it will go in her favor regardless of what the court order says.
