If there is a divorce with two children and joint physical custody has been ordered by the court, does each parent have a right to claim one child per year?
This generally has to be addressed by the court, but joint physical custody does not necessarily mean equal physical access. He parent with the children 51% of the time can take the deduction, minus any time spent in day care and/or school. A true form of joint physical custody is Bird Nest. see link below
It should be addressed in the divorce and custody arrangement. If not, it is a matter of frequent dispute. Generally, the custodial parent...but if the other is actually providing the majority of financial support, an argument can be made for them.
You divorce and get custody over your kids or just get full custody!
You have the visitation rights that were established in the divorce, and you have no custody rights.
YES, IF YOU ARE GOING THROUGH A DIVORCE, YOU NEED TO ASK FOR CUSTODY AS PART OF THE DIVORCE SETTLEMENT. THIS WOULD BE THE BEST TIME TO DO IT BECAUSE IF SOCIAL SERVICES ALREADY TOOK THE CHILDREN FROM THE MOTHER , THE JUDGE WOULD EASILY GRANT YOU CUSTODY THE CHILDREN.
In a divorce, the other spouse has to be notified of the motion for divorce, and they also have to be notified of your intention to sue for custody fo the children. So, no, it's not possible to be granted a divorce or custody of the children without the other spouse being notifiied of the intent.
Will you have custody or not?
Your divorce decree should outline who gets to claim the children on their taxes. If your decree does not outline it, you will just have to come up with an agreement on your own with the other parent.
Custody rulings have nothing to do with who files for the divorce first.
yes you can when you divorce you can do anything you want with your children as long as you have custody of them.
Diana and Prince Charles shared custody of the children
That should be expressed in the custody orders.
There are several aspects that are considered when courts determine the custody of children to parents in a divorce. This can include the child age and health. They will also consider a parent's lifestyle, the physical bond between the child or children, and the ability to care for the child or children both financially and physically.
