If the child has to be claimed by January 31 how is that possible if w2s do not have to be sent out until the latest of january 31?
There is no date specific for a child to be claimed as a dependent on a tax return. The 2019 tax return can be filed at any time on or before April 15, 2020 if taxes are owed. Or at any time within the next 3 years from the due date if filing for a tax refund.
