You will need to print and mail your return to get the credits for your child. The IRS will then use the Tie Breaker Rules to determine who gets to claim him.
If your son lived with you for the entire 12 months, then you would be the one only one who could claim him as a qualifying child since one of the criteria is the child has to live with you for more than half of the year. Child support does not determine who gets to claim the child.
