    If the divorce decree says he can claim them, then he can until they are finished with school

    If the original support order was made before the disability as diagnosed, then you certainly can go back and ask for a modification.

    You can of course go and ask for that to be modified, and also check to see if the support is correct for his current earnings since 85 a week would normally be about a min wage employee

    That's is what I said lol I was mainly wondering I know the decree stands with the IRS but was wondering if I took him to court on that if the judge would see he had nothing to do with these children and claimed them I really thought he would be a dad but all they were to him was a tax deduction and it is a shame someone would be that way I don't know seems to be a no win situation
