My ex already claimed my son!iI had him the most nights.if I claim him too what will happen ?

The second return filed will be rejected.  If your return rejects you can print and mail it.  The IRS will send you both letters to determine who is able to claim him.

Will this happen before the refunds are issued?

It will probably take the IRS awhile to send out the letters but you should get the refund.

I'm sorry to keep bothering you but I really need the money to continue to support my son so I asked will I get the refund and then they will ask for repayment from the person who was not supposed to claim my child

How will the IRS determine who was able to claim him
