I file SINGLE, however I live full time with my child and his mother. Since we are not technically married and she makes more money, she claims head of household and claims our son as her dependent.

Here is my question, through my employer I participate in a "Dependent Care Account" of which I contributed $5,000 last year. Can I claim the money I paid for child care on my taxes since my son is not truly my dependent however I paid for ALL of his child care in 2013 including the use of money from a dependent care account?
