Question juridique clé
Whether the taxpayer was entitled to the cantonal child deductions for adult children in education.
Solution extraite
Yes. The children remained support-dependent in 2011; the taxpayer bore the larger share of their maintenance and thus qualified for the child deductions.
Motifs extraits
The court assessed the whole tax period, found the children’s modest earnings and non-taxable assets insufficient to cover their remaining living costs, and held that the father’s alimony did not cover the full support need. The taxpayer therefore contributed more than the other parent.
