In a divorce, how is claiming dependents on taxes decided?

Matthew Kyle Simcox
Answered by attorney Matthew Kyle Simcox (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Simcox Law Firm, P.L.L.C.
This is a case where federal law dictates the answer.  Under the Internal Revenue Code, the parent who is the primary custodian gets to claim the children.  Sometimes in divorce cases we make provisions regarding who gets to claim them, but the federal government doesn't care one bit about what a State court rules. So, to answer your question, it sounds like you get to claim them under federal law.  You may, because you are a nice person, allow her to claim them, but that is solely your decision.  If you both claim both children, then ultimately, when the IRS flags your returns, you sir would win the battle.  At least that is my understanding of how that works. Good luck.

Will the state give his ex-wife half of the part time pension or only the pension that is named on the QDRO, which is his current full time job?

Answered by attorney John E. Kirchner (Unclaimed Profile)

Your fact statement is too confusing to be certain what the issue is. But, as a rule all property issues decided in a divorce case are final and permanent, meaning decisions cannot be changed later. The state cannot do anything other than what a court order requires, even if you mean that the "state" is also the employer or the retirement plan administrator. A QDRO only applies to one single, specified retirement plan that existed at the time of divorce.

If after 10 years I found that I'm still married to my ex husband who remarried two years after me, what should we do?

Answered by attorney Brent R. Chipman
Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Brent R. Chipman
You should first confirm whether or not your divorce was ever finalized. If it was not, it should not be difficult to complete the action now. You can ask the court to make the divorce effective back to a date prior to your next marriage. It is important for you to have the divorce finalized if there are provisions for child support, alimony, or the division of retirement benefits. If the new wife gets a divorce decree that gives her a portion of her husband's retirement benefits before you get a decree giving you part of his retirement, her order will take precedence of your order and could affect the amount you receive. You should contact an attorney to review the status of the first divorce to see what other issues might arise if your husband next divorce is entered before you can finalize your proceeding, and to determine the effect on your current marriage.
