I don’t have any children. So does that mean I don’t get no money. Are they gonna take more from my check to pay for the others to get a check.

"I don’t have any children. So does that mean I don’t get no money."

I have two sons, but they are in their 50's, and neither has children by choice. But I sure could have used that money as a divorced single mother when they were small. In 1980, the one year I was able to claim earned income credit, my ex-husband took the kids as exemptions on his return. I was audited, and I had to pay it back. My salary for that year was $5579. I'd even had my divorce decree include that I would be the one able to claim them on my returns. When I told the IRS that, they said it didn't matter. Later that year I took a job with NY State, and my salary went up to $12,400, so he was unable to take the exemption ever again.
