Question

I am divorced and live in NY. My ex and I share the costs of housing our 23 yr old daughter in CT. Does that allow me to claim support?

You have not mentioned whether your 23 year old is a full-time student.  if she is not a full-time student and had over $4200 of income in 2019, neither one of you can claim her as a dependent.  Money you give her to help with her rent is not deductible.
