Call ask them if they can tell you if he did. If he did and was suppose to ask them the form(s) you need to file tax fraud on him and file yours and send proof they reside with you.Whom do you contact to find out if your ex-spouse used your children on their tax returns?
Why don't you simply ask your ex? I believe only whoever is listed as primary caretaker (custodial parent) of the children on the divorce papers can claim them as dependents on tax returns. So if he is not the custodial parent and used the children as exemptions, he'll be audited, not you. Of course, this is just something I read online, I'd consult a tax professional to be absolutely positive.
You can't contact anyone to find that out. The IRS isn't allowed to discuss another person's return with you. You could ask your ex-spouse, I suppose.





If you are the one with the right to claim them, then go ahead and claim them. If the other parent has already claimed them and you try to efile, your filing will be rejected, you'll have to mail in your return. Then your ex and you will each receive a letter from the IRS telling you that two people claimed the same person, and saying that whoever didn't have the right to the claim needs to file an amended return dropping the claim - then if nobody does, they'll investigate and decide who gets the exemption. The other person will have to pay back whatever he got by making the claim he wasn't entitled to, with interest and possible penalties.
why not ask them about it??? if they filed and werent suppose to , you can paper send your return and show proof of the child living with you, or documentation stating that you were suppose to claim them, and irs will handle it
You can't, unless you claimed the child in question on your return. If you do, the IRS will eventually sort it out.
IF the children lived with you BUT the divorce papers state that he can claim their exemption then he can claim that. if that is not stated in the divorce decree and you have not given him permission then you are the only one that can claim the children and he is commiting fraud.





You have to file a paper return with a statement and documents proving that the children lived with you and the IRS will contact you both if they need any additional details about who gets to claim the children.





EVEN if he cant claim them he can only get the child tax credits and the exemption. YOU still get the HOH status and EIC.
Your divorce decree should spell out who claims the children on their tax return. If not it is generally the parent you has custody of the children. If you both claim the children the IRS will contact you both and ask for documentation to show who is entitled to the deduction. Ask your ex if he took them, he is the only one you can ask at this point.
