What would happen if separated parents both claimed the child on their taxes without the other knowing?

As you must give the SS# of the dependent, the IRS computers oick thatup in a milisecond, deny the deduction to all, and assess penalties and interest to all. They will send you a letter with the bill, or explaining why your (now delayed) refund is less than you expect. I suspect it makes the returns subject to further review too.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
