Do I claim seperate or joint in first year of marriage if we both have dependants from prior relationships but we're single the whole year til we were married?
Do i claim taxes together or separate within first year of marriage both with children from other relationships. Married Oct13 but not commonlaw before and both of us were single with me having joint/equal custody of my 2 daughters and with her having 75% custody of her sons. So we would claim a single dependent each? Claim singly or no?

As for who "claims" the kids, it would depend on a number of factors, and what credit you are referring to. For example, if you paid medical expenses for your spouse's children, you can claim those expenses on your return, if they are under 18.
