Filing 8332

[Corduroy Frog]

"Dianne" comes to me to have her taxes filed.

"Jack claims Toddler in odd years, and I claim him in even years."

[me] "Did Jack give you an 8332?"

[Dianne]  "Oh no.  We sorta just agreed to that."

So we don't have an 8332 and we go ahead and file electronically without one.

My question:  Will the IRS hold up processing the return?  Researching to see whether "Jack" has claimed Toddler?
