Alimony and living in same house My wife and I are legally separated officially on 1/1/14. She has just been diagnosed with breast cancer and I'd like to not move out for a few months to help her.
However, I am paying her a huge amount of alimony, but I think I read where I can't deduct alimony from my taxes if I live in the same house.
Is there a way around this?
Also, how can the IRS know where i live if we file separately for 2014?
I assume I (effectively) have to pay her taxes (or I guess get taxed double) if there is no way around this correct? |
