In Texas, divorces are categorized as either contested or uncontested. A contested divorce involves disagreements over issues like custody or property, requiring court intervention. An uncontested divorce occurs when both parties agree on all matters, including custody and property division.

In cases of 50/50 custody, parents can agree during the divorce proceedings on who will claim the child for tax purposes. Options include alternating tax years or assigning specific children to each parent for future tax years. Resolving this issue during the divorce helps prevent future conflicts. Consulting a CPA for tax advice is also recommended.

Joint custody, referred to as joint managing conservatorship in Texas, means both parents share the general rights and responsibilities of raising their child. However, it doesn’t automatically imply a 50/50 possession schedule. Courts may order equal custody in some cases, but typically, parents must agree on such arrangements.
