Hello.. need some advice please in Tennessee. My husband and I have been married for almost 8 yrs with 3 small children. Ages 4, 4 and 15 months. My husband and I are on the brink of getting a divorce soon.
Here is my dilemma.
Every year of our marriage I have always done our taxes. This year my husband decided to file his Married filing seperately online with Hr & Block which I was not happy about. I did up our taxes married jointly and married seperatedly for both us in advance to let him know how it would turn out. Ended up he would owe and I told him only way he wouldn't have to was to claim the kids.
Well, that is when he went to file, claimed 2 of our 3 children and claimed ME as well on his taxes. Which he could not do. He said the "program" said if I didn't work for 5-6 months that I could be claimed which we all know is a BS lie. Someone I don't know who but someone had to have helped him with those taxes but he said there wasn't anyone. But, I know the program does not say that.
He could not claim me for one.. I DID NOT give my consent for him to claim me. Secondly just because I have not worked since July.. I still have income coming in (Severance Pay).
So, because he filed the way he did. I got screwed and not being able get anything off claiming the 3rd child due to a 1099-R that I also filed. But, he also screwed us in the EIC and the Addt Child Tax Credit.
I guess you can say that I am pissed because only when I threated to sue him and whomever helped him with his tax return for what rightfully belonged to me if we had filed jointly did he want to immediately go get his return amended then.
So, now the jerk has his money and I gotta wait a heck of a lot longer to get mine.
Is there anything that I can use with this for when we get ready to file for our divorce. Especially when he claimed me as an exemption withOUT my consent in the beginning.
I am just curious
Thank You in advance
