My spouse and I file separately and have two children, can each of us claim one child?
It seems like the FEDS make the person with the higher AGI claim the children, unless you have one of these circumstances:
- You lived apart from your spouse during the last 6 months of the year
- Your home was the qualifying person's main home for more than half of the year
- You paid for more than half of the cost of keeping up that home for the year,
We have to file separately even though it is not the most beneficial thing. But were hoping to each claim a child to take advantage of FSA dependent care accounts.
