Deductions & credits

You are going to enter the amounts paid to the daycare on your tax return.  It is very unlikely that the IRS or any other taxing authority is going to want copies of payments showing what bank account the money came from.   The payments were made to the daycare for caring for your dependent listed on your tax return.   That should be more than enough information.   Dad is not claiming the child or credit, right?    Unless he is fighting with you over custody and tax issues or claiming the child and credits, it is not going to come up.
