Child support is not a deductible expense, so it doesn’t
wind up on the tax return. If you are the custodial parent, and claim your
children as dependents, then you need to include their Social Security numbers
on your tax return. The noncustodial parent who is not claiming the children
does not need to include their names or Social Security numbers on their
return.
