Temporary order is set, but nothing was determined who gets to claim the two kids we have. Needless to say she went ahead and filled married separate and claimed both children. Am i entitled to half. She never discussed with me nor did the judge order anything.
The tax refund is marital money, whether it is looked at as income or an asset. File a motion before the court commissioner to request your half of the refund or you can wait to bring it up as part of finalizing your divorce case. It was also a bad decision for her to file married but separate, as usually the joint married tax rates are better than filing separate but married.
