My stepdaughter lives with my wife and I 12 months of the year. Her mother and father were not married. Can he claim her even though she does not live with him? Also, what action do I need to take if he already has claimed her?

I reside in Oregon and received backpay and a W2 from my former employer in Arizona, where taxes were withheld. I need to list two W2s on my 1040 federal return. However, it appears Oregon will not allow me a tax credit for taxes paid in Arizona, requiring me to pay taxes on W2 wages from Arizona. Is this true, and if so, how should I handle this to avoid double taxation?

I recently filed my tax returns for the years 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009. I should have received a refund of over $11,000 for 2004 and 2005, but I owe $12,000 for 2006. I didn't realize there was a 3-year deadline for filing and claiming a refund. Would the IRS give me a tax credit for the 2004 and 2005 refunds to set off my tax debt? I have the same problem with NYS taxes, where the debt is even greater.

I lived in GA, but my ex-husband divorced me in TX in 2004 (the final decree does not have my signature), and I found out about this divorce in 2007. Now, I live alone with my two kids, and he says I can't declare the kids in my taxes because the final decree from TX says he is entitled to claim both kids on his taxes. He lives in another state and doesn't see the kids more than once a year, plus he left me and the kids without any money during the divorce. What can I do and what are my rights?
