No. Supporting your family is NOT deductible anywhere, regardess of how you do it. By paying to the custodial parent, or if you had them, buying the bicycle, trips to Disney, clothes, food, etc that one does for their kids. It is simply a responsibility.

Can your mother claim your son on her taxes if you owe back child support?
To claim a child as a dependent on your taxes, the child must have lived with you and you must have provided support for over 50% of the year.

Does a father have to pay more child support if he claims child?
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.

He can only claim the child as a dependent if there is a clause in the divorce agreement which allows him to claim the child or if he is the primary caregiver and there is no divorce agreement. You should always consult a lawyer or a tax consultant first though. The laws may vary depending on the state in which you reside. Check with the IRS website and your state rules.
