If you are not the parent who had custody more than half the nights of the year, make sure you get a signed form 8332 from the other parent. You must mail the signed original to the IRS after e- filing.
You will also likely qualify for a $1400 round 3 stimulus payment, assuming the round 3 payment for your child was also paid to the other parent earlier in the spring. Unlike the child tax credit, she will not have to repay the stimulus even if you also qualify when you file.
