I claim my son as dependent on odd years and my ex husband claims him on even years. For Federal tax, for the even years I don't claim my son as dependent, I can still deduct child expenses. For Wisconsin tax return, the child expense deductibles just get automatically transferred from Federal tax to Wisconsin tax form. Now I am getting audited as it seems for the years I don't claim child dependent, I can't deduct child expenses for Wisconsin apparently. Is there an error in Wisconsin tax software that should not have transferred the child expense deduction from federal tax to Wisconsin for the years I have no child dependent?
