Can I claim children from my previous marriage while my current wife claims our child from this marriage?

 

Credits and deductions

You can only claim children from your previous marriage if you and your ex-wife agree that you would claim them or that it is court-ordered. 

 

If yes, then you will be able to claim them and yes your current wife can claim her child. However, if you are married and do a joint return, you would enter all the children together.
