Can a parent paying child support file child on taxes?

Paying Child Support has nothing to do with any right to claim the child on their return. A divorce agreement or custody agreement usually deals with rights to claim a child on a tax return. If there is no such agreement deciding who get to claim the child then the IRS rules do. Usually the first right is the custodial parent (the person the child lives with). Residency is one of the requirements to claim a dependent.


How do you apply for social security child support?

There is no such thing as "social security child support." If the child's parent(s) is eligible for Social Security, the child is probably eligible, also. In such a case, the child's benefit is considered child support. If that benefit exceeds the amount ordered for child support, the obligor does not owe any additional payment.

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.


Can you claim a child who you pay child support for who is in foster care on a tax return?

Child support you pay is not usually tax deductible; you would need the situation to fulfill all requirements of the child being a dependent--living with you, paying for more than half of the child's costs and so on.

The child's SSA benefit counts toward your child support obligation as if you had paid it yourself. You will owe the difference, if any. But, you need to file a modification to reduce the amount to the being paid by the SSA. see links
