If you have more refund or credits available to you, and a "qualifying" child to claim...yes, of course.
No. You can claim the child and take off child care costs, but single people pay a higher rate.
When you claim a child that is under 17 maybe. You may qualify for the Child Tax Credit or the Additional Child Tax credit. Also if you pay for child care you may qualify for The Child and Dependant Care Credit.
Two people can not claim the same child. It's as simple as that. If the judge ordered that he get to claim the child for that certain year. Then he gets to claim him for whatever deductions apply to him.
Only if you have a right to claim the qualfying child or relative...and they aren't clamed eslewhere, including their ow return. You must provide their SS# which confirms these things.
Question isn't clear, but the State will take your entire tax refund, except for the part attributable to your spouse.

If you have earned income you claim as many as you have for an exemption however for the EIC credit you can only claim 3
Well if you have no outcome how are you going to be able to provide for your child ? Talk to your lawyer or tax representative for more information
I can only assume you mean claiming the child on your taxes. If you pay child support on a child and claim that child on your taxes, you are committing tax fraud. You can only claim a child on your taxes if you are providing most of his support and that includes he has to be living with you for most of the tax year. How much a father pays does not necessarily relate to him claiming the child on his tax return. You need to review your court orders. They should address who gets to claim the child as a dependent for tax purposes. If not set forth in the order then check your state laws. Most states provide that the custodial parent gets to claim the child for all of the reasons set forth above.
Whoever has physical custody of the child for more than 50% of the year (at least 183 out of 365 days) can claim the child on a tax return. If both parents have 50% custody, whoever has custody of the child on tax day (April 18th in 2011) can claim the child.
yes if you claim ) they take more money out of your check then you'll get back any overpayment when you do your tax return
If the child lived with you for over 50% of the year (183 out of 365 days) then yes, you can claim the child as a dependent on your tax return, even if they don't live with you now.
