Questão jurídica principal
Whether the taxpayer is entitled to full child deductions for three children in 2015.
Decisão extraída
No. Because the parents were separately taxed, had joint parental authority, and no maintenance contributions were proven for year-end 2015, each parent receives only half of the child deductions.
Fundamentação extraída
The decisive point is the situation at the end of the tax period. Where joint custody exists and no deductible maintenance payments are made, the child deduction is split equally, regardless of the extent of alternating care.
