Taxes

Op, just file your taxes and do your standard deductions. I will tell you this though her lawyer is playing games with you and I think your lawyer is in on it. Here is the reason why because if your attorney is reaching out to them and they are ignoring you you technically are conducting a due diligence assessment and by them failing to respond you can file that motion to compel. However, that is probably what your attorney wants because that’s more money and secondly her attorney also knows that you guys are fighting so they’re going to pit you against each other and get more money out of you. This is basically a pattern that they use on all customers. Unfortunately, you are caught in the middle here and the more she stonewalls the more money you will lose because it’s going to come back to you. Of course she is going to seek attorney fees from you even if she doesn’t get it, you will lose money by having to have your attorney go to court and represent you. I would start to audit your attorney because attorneys at the end of the day while they may represent you and your best interest. It doesn’t always work out that way they’re really there to represent their best interest delay the case as long as they can, and then head for the finish line once they dried the lake up brother you’re being played on both sides.

As far as my knowledge and lack of experience goes, my advice is to just file and don't worry about it. I filed MFS and claimed everything I could. Might have to amend if my ex and lawyer try something but I'm done waiting for "approval" to handle my shit. If you're doing your own taxes it might help to get a tax pro/service that offers insurance if you're unsure about it. Irs takes amended returns within 3 years of the filing date, so if whenever they do finally decide to stop playing hidenseek, you might get some information you need.

Pay attention. Family court attorneys use this process to extract as much generational wealth from you (and your children if you have them) as possible to enrich themselves. Their 1st duty is to the court- not you. Look up your statutes. Realizer this and create your strategy knowing you are in a game where it's you vs her attorney, your attorney, the judge, the state, the child therapist, a GAL if one comes into play, a school administration and any other player who sees you as an "abuse filled man full of male toxicity". If your ex is high conflict- they LOVE that. They hear cha ching. More conflict equals more profit in the corrupt family courts system for all of the players.

The court won’t force her to sign, it will just grant the divorce

It’s extremely unlikely the IRS will care at all about the itemization. If so, you’ll deal with it then as an easy paper audit. Don’t worry about it.

Sorry she’s a stubborn one lol.

Why do you think she’s refusing to sign?

Sounds like you're getting played pretty hard. And how can a court compel her to sign the decree? It's an agreement arrived at through mediation, she can go back on it anytime she wants, can't she? Is she collecting temporary support off you or what?

Just push the divorce through and get it over with. When someone shows you who they really are, believe them.
