Please complete the requiredfederal individual income tax return forms for the following taxpayer. Skip the tax credits part for this project. You may stop after completing Line 11 on Form 1040.

Sarah Hamblin is your client. Sarah and her now ex-husband Kevin were legally divorced on March 1 of 2018 for which you are completing the tax return. As of the end of 2018, Sarah was not married. Sarah and Kevin had only child an 11 year old girl named Elizabeth. As part of the divorce decree, Sarah was given custody of Elizabeth and Kevin was required to pay child support for Elizabeths care as well as alimony to Sarah until she remarries or dies. Because Kevin would be making child support payments, the divorce decree provided that Kevin would be permitted to claim Elizabeth as a dependent on his tax return until Elizabeth no longer qualifies as a tax dependent of her parents and the decree obligates Sarah to sign and/or file any required forms to cause this result to occur.

Sarah rents a home (separate from Kevin) that she pays for herself. Elizabeth lives with Sarah most of the time but she visits and stays with her father every other weekend and most holidays. During the year, Elizabeth stayed at Kevins house a total of 74 nights.
