Being a ward of the State in itself means there is no custodial parent, and certainly none that supports the child, which is needed to take the deduction.

If arrearage is owed can custodial parent claim child if courts gave tax exemption to non custodial parent?

I'm not sure what state you are in, but in Utah a non custodial parent may NOT claim the child if they are not current on child support. You need to check your individual state. I'm thinking the custodial parent could claim the child if the non custodial parent isn't able to. I don't see why they would allow the exemption to go to waste. It's not like your taking it away from him, just using it because NCP can't.

It depends on the court order. if there is a court order established then it will usually state the specifics.
