My son's father has been in prison for the past 4 years. Our son has never lived with him, Ever! But he has been claiming our son since 2020. I claimed the first 3 years and this year he took it upon himself to claim him 1st and has since. He is very abusive and has almost killed me. So I'm horrified of him even in prison which is why I haven't done anything and allowed him to do so for the past 5 years. Now I'm fed up! He's never done a thing 4 our son and now is fraudulently claiming our son which he was already. It's crazy the IRS is incapable of detecting the incarcerated trying to claim a dependent. What can I do to at least get my refund and credits for our son for not the past 5 years but at least 3?
