help with ex- filing separately
My (now) ex and I were legally married through 2020. I filed my taxes and forgot to check the places to show where she would be filing her taxes separately and also claiming her daughter. I ended up filing an amended return a couple of days ago that fixed it. She is still saying that her filing is being rejected. I sent her a Form 8332 and signed it so that it helps "release" me from claiming the daughter.
The weird part is that we were a blended family. I have and adopted daughter and my ex- has an adopted daughter. We both were able to claim the girls on our returns. I did not get a chance to adopt her daughter and my daughter has a mother who still has parental rights. What else do I need to do to help my ex- file her tax return and be able to claim her daughter?
