“Strong independent women” finna be mad

99% sure this is total BS, but something that should be true.

I keep hearing this and seeing videos, but can't find the original tweet.

Tons of videos from very happy black fathers, but can't find the original Tweet.



quote:

Trump. Just tweeted if you put your baby father on child support, right? Right. You can't claim income tax.


quote:

Cuz this a new law gets paid. That going to stop your baby mama from taking your income tax cash.


quote:

he's trying to say women can no longer recieve the child tax credit if they are getting child support payments, which makes sense.

That would be a huge improvement on the system or at least get into a % split somehow.

I am down to paying for 3 but it is still almost $60k per year on a POST-tax basis. I have to pay income taxes on money I never get to touch and get no benefit from a taxation standpoint.

Snopes says its fake, but it's Snopes so take it for what it' worth.
Snopes

I wish he would though, it makes no sense that I have to pay taxes and get zero benefit although it wouldn't change anything for me.

As long as we keep incentivizing women to divorce, then nothing will change in marriage statistics

The black ladies are freaking out and the black dudes are happy as hell on tik tok, but I’m pretty sure it’s all fake.

Divorce agreements are a state issue. No one should want the federal government to insert itself into this.

Who claims this kids on taxes is something that can be included in divorce agreements.

You’d think the president that’s been divorced 6 times would do the right thing and finally make child support illegal


Men have been persecuted for far too long

WTF language is this?

Also where is this income cash tax being handed out to people instead of income taxes being taken from them???

Correct but this is regarding federal tax credits.

I doubt that is true. The TCJA actually changed how child support is taxed. Person paying used to be able to deduct and the person receiving had to recognize. Trump’s tax plan did away with that.

Lots of orders out there that were settlements where the tax credit is assigned to a certain parent.

I would love it…but it doesn’t seem likely to me.

The child tax credit is a refundable credit.

This is more related to specific divorce agreements than to overall tax code.

Yes but if the court doesn’t address it, who claims the kid defaults to the tax code. Right now it’s whoever has more parenting time claims the kids

I would bet the vast majority of decrees have a provision for the credits. It is often part of the negotiations.

In TN, It’s addressed on our parenting plan but our child support guidelines also default to the tax code if the case goes to trial. It basically becomes an inarguable position if parties don’t settle
