I got married on 12/24/24. My husband has 2 children from his previous marriage, and I have 2 children from my previous marriage. I can claim both of my children on my taxes until my ex-husband is caught up on child support, and my current husband can claim 1 of his children. Do we claim 3 dependents?

Yes, you can claim all three dependents on your tax return. TurboTax will ask you questions to determine what benefits, if any, you are eligible to receive for the children.
