When you are separated, the rules about who qualifies as a dependant may change. If you were claiming a dependant on your taxes before the separation, you may be unable to claim that dependant now. The agreement needs to be followed therefore, you do not claim them.
Our TurboTax article Can you still Claim Dependants After a Separation?. will give you more information as to the type of claim you can make when separated and living alone with a child.
Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
