Question

My ex husband and I split custody of our children 50/50 (every other week) but I entered that they live with me all year on my return. Do I need to amend this?

Only if you and your ex agree to your claiming the children say that they lived with you all year.

Our agreement is that he claims one and I claim the other.  I'm not sure what he put on his tax form though.

You really have to coordinate with him. If you end up claiming the same child it will be a mess to unravel with the IRS.
