Married Filing Separately with Twins in Community Property State
My wife and I will be filing taxes as Married Filing Separately in a community state and I'm confused about how to enter our kids into turbotax since we have to file two separate returns. We're not divorced/separated.
1) TurboTax asks me to enter my child's information. Do I enter both children's information into both of our filings? Or just the information about the one child we are each going to claim?
2) Do we each need to complete a Form 8332 for the child we're not claiming ( Release of Claim to Exemption for Child of Divorced or Separated Parents, stating that you will not claim this child as a dependent) even though we're not divorced or separated?
Thanks
