My husband and I separated in 2024. I am doing our taxes separately. Do I still add our dependents on his return as well or just mine?

Only one person (either mother or father who the child is residing with) can claim the dependent. If the Canada Revenue Agency receives duplicate claims, they will reject both. Only by one parent relinquishing the claim can it be resolved. You can also refer to CRA link.

 

Thanks for choosing TurboTax.
