Interpretive. Generally no, but you may be able to challenge for it if the child is living away from the custodial parent and you are providing more than half the financial support. At the end of the 1998, a father won such a case, but I had a high temperature stroke soon after the news of it was released, and I lost track of the case by the time I had recovered enough to return to work, so it may take some research.
no
To claim a child as a dependent on your taxes, the child must have lived with you and you must have provided support for over 50% of the year. So the mother in this case can claim her grandson on her taxes if she supported the child for at least 183 days out of the year, regardless of whether or not the mother of the child owes back child support.
No you can not claim a child who is married
Only one person can claim a person. Once a person is claimed as a dependent, no one lese can claim him. Does your divorce agreement state who is allowed to claim your son for income tax purposes? If not, the custodial parent has a higher right to claim the child than the non-custodial parent. him paying child support does not grant him any rights to claim your son either.
If you mean February 2015 you can claim your son, but you can't claim a child before he or she is born. Under the law a unborn child is not a tax deduction.
Probably not. He would have to live with you over half of the year, and you would have to provide over half of his support for the year.
No, Allas.
If the child was (a) under 19 at the end of the year or (b) under 24 at the end of the year and a fulltime student during the year or (c) totally and permanently disabled AND this child did not provide more than half his own support, THEN you can claim him. Remember that money put in the bank or invested is not support. Even if he earned a million dollars but put it in the bank, you might be able to claim him. If the child did not qualify under the above rules, then his gross income is too high to claim him as a dependent unless the income came from a sheltered workshop for the disabled.
No, because she has nothing to do with your and your ex's child support situation. That is how it works in TN, anyway. The only tax money you are entitled to is solely that of your ex-husband.
The State's child support agency and the revenue agency(s) will likely file estate claims to collect that money.Even if he pre-decease his parents. see links

Generally, the parent who contributes over fifty percent of the cost of the dependent is entitled to the deduction. Both parents can end up claiming the child, which will result in a possible edit from the IRS.
No, the provisions of IRS law only address this based on time spent with each parent. I assume your son is underage? See Dads House at link below about his rights as well as child support issues.
