if my husband claims his two children and we file jointly, would i be able to get financial aid for school based on having two kids, even though they are my step kids?

I may have missed something, were they married and now divorce? Or, never marrie? If they got divorced there should definately be an orer that covers custody and parenting time. the 182-183 calculation is for child support calculations and really does little if anything to resolve "Time sharing" issues. Before there can be a modification of custody there needs to be an order in effect to modify. If there is not youshould file for sole legal and sole physical if that is what you thingk is best for the kids. You might also want to send her a copy of Stop Fighting Over The Kids: Resolving Day-to-Day Custody Conflict in Divorce Situations. Best of luck, Mike

You need to be careful...a child support order which mentions parenting time has nothing to do with a custody order. It is not binding for custodial time sharing arrangements.
