| Child support & Federal Income taxes In Louisiana, my friend was awarded to claim his minor children has dependents on his federal income taxes every year beginning in 1999. He fell into child support arrears and has since satisfied the arrears in March 2008. He would like to resume claiming his children as dependents on his 2008 federal income taxes but is unsure if he can or if he'll have to wait until 2009 tax year?
What can he do? |
