Deductions & credits
No. Child support is not entered anywhere on a tax return and you are not the custodial parent. The custodial parent is the one who can claim the child as a dependent. If----and only if---you and the other parent have a signed Form 8332, you could enter the child on your return and get the child tax credit. Without a signed agreement, you do not enter anything at all about the child on your tax return.
