He's trying to make you responsible for what he does. You don't have to have any exchange whatsoever about it. He knows he isn't current, so he's not entitled to the allowance. Period.
My CPA friend told me we BOTH will get audited if we both claim the same kid(s)... So I have nothing to hide and my being audited is fine-- but it is a PAIN IN THE ARSE that I would prefer to NOT deal with...
That's my one annoyance that makes me inclined to let him claim one-- but I filed already so I need to stop second guessing things...
