i would like to know if daughter was claimed on someone taxes?

Answer 1

The IRS will not tell you who claimed the dependant, but they can advise you on what to do.
You will have to file a paper return
you and the person who claimed the dependant will receive a letter stating that 2 people used the dependants social security number, They will ask that both partys submit proof of who was actually eligible to claim the dependant. This can include school records, Dr records, copy of a lease agreement acknowledging that the child lives at the address of record.
The IRS will make a determination of who actually qualifies to claim the dependant. The person who claimed the dependant will then owe back any refund they received in error plus interest and penalties. This also raise a red flag on that persons future tax returns for up to the next 10 years.
Calll the IRS at 1-800-829-1040
Respond to any correspondence from the IRS immediately to expedite your claim.
This will cause a delay in processing your return and your refund

Answer 2

If you are not entitled to claim her, it doesn't matter if anyone else has, at least as far as YOUR tax situation goes.

If you are entitled to claim her, just file your return and claim her. If you e-file and it is rejected you'll know that someone else did althogh you won't know who did. File a paper return in that case and the IRS will contact both of you and sort it out.

They will not discuss who the other party is, however.
