I just want to clarify the previous comments about the ability of your ex-wife to allow you to claim your daughter as a dependent. That option may not be available.
In most states, when a child turns age 18 they are considered emancipated from their parents, and the restricts the ability for your ex-wife to allow you to claim daughter (assuming your daughter does not live with you). Unless your daughter was less than 18 for over half of the year, that option is not available.
