Deductions & credits

I completely understand that and have filed married but separately for years. This is the first time with 2 dependent and I have tried to have each of us file 1 kid. However, going through the TurboTax interview it always assigns both kids to the highest income earner. Because we do not meet the following requirements:

 

  • 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,

Is it possible for each of us to claim 1, I have found lots of conflicting information.
