The titile should say: Tax question on spousal maintenance. I hit the Enter key too soon!

Hi everyone,

I posted a question about CS increase when my son turns 12 next month. He finally gave me his tax return for the last year and I noticed that he claimed $1000 more than he actually paid me for spousal maintenance for the year on his tax return. I know, it's not much, but I don't want any trouble with IRS about this discrepancy and I wonder if I should report this difference. According to his return, it shows that I claimed my annual income $1000 less, which is not the case.

Does anyone know how to do this? Thank you in advance.
