Deductions & credits

You will need to amend your 2022 Tax Return and remove the child so that the father can claim him or her. 

 

Typically the custodial parent claims the child. It might be easier to refund the father the amount that he should have received if he claimed the child than amend your return. You will need to pay the IRS the amount due by 4/18 if you amend your return and there is a payment due.

 

If you are amending see the steps below:

 

  1. In TurboTax, scroll down to Your tax returns & documents. Select Show and then select Amend (change) return, and then Amend using TurboTax Online. ...
  2. Select the reason you're amending and follow the instructions.

 

Also, see Form 8832
