I'm sure there will be a number of these questions.
Have a client who was divorced in 2021. Courts order them to file MFJ in 2020. advanced CTC was paid out based on MFJ and courts order half of the payments be paid to the spouse. When I file the taxpayer's return for 2021 he will be single filing status as the divorce decree indicates he gets the children for income tax purposes, but did not have the kids for over half the nights so he is not the custodial parent.
Form 8812 Part I-C line e indicates "enter the aggregate amount of advance child tax credit payments you (and your spouse if filing jointly) received for 2021..."
Since he's filing single and since the form reads to only indicate the amount of spouse's payments if you're filing jointly, I'm assuming I don't need to enter the 6419 information for his ex-wife, correct?
