The issue of custody is entirely separate from the issue of his illegal tax filing. You will not be able to charge him with identity theft unless he used your name and social security number.
If you worked and paid taxes you may file and claim your daughter. If both claim her the IRS will rule in your favor. If you did not pay taxes or claim her you can notify the IRS that he is not entitled to the deduction.
If he files for legitimation the father can ask for visitation or custody. As part of your defense you can say he defrauded the United States by claiming the child. The court will consider all evidence both parents present and decide what is best for your child.
