Hi,
I am wondering if it is possible to amend a past return to add a dependent that someone else wrongly claimed. I am specifically looking at 2019 and 2020.
I have two minor children that I share custody of with my ex. During those tax years they resided with me about 75% of the time. I also assumed that it was right that we each would claim one child every year. I realized since then that this is not correct. I also read on the irs website that he was supposed to have a form signed by me to allow him to claim either of our kids. That form was never filled out.
Will the irs allow me to amend to claim my other child for those years and what will that process be like if it is possible?
TIA 😀
