My boyfriend and I share a home and a child. Who should claim head of household to maximize tax returns? |
He made 15x more money than I did last year.(I dont know if that matters) Can we both be head of household since we are not married? Generally, you may claim head of household filing status on your tax return only if you are unmarried and pay more than 50% of the costs of keeping up a home for yourself and your dependent(s) or other qualifying individuals. Only one person can claim HOH in your circumstances Source(s): Internal Revenue Service 1-800-829-1040 The parent with the least income. only one of you can claim head of household. your boyfriend can claim HOH and claim both you and your child as dependents. since he makes alot more money, it would probably benefit him more to take the exemptions. you would file "single" and mark "dependent of another." |
