If im paying child support but only get my daught every other weekend do i clam her as a dependent

The custodial parent is the parent who gets to claim the child. If you and the other parent have a signed Form 8332 then you might be able to get the child tax credit, but ONLY if you have that form signed. Paying child support does not mean you can claim the child as a dependent.
