Can I Claim Head Of Household?
I live with my girlfriend and 1 roommate. The rent and everything is split 3 ways. Nobody has kids. We have been living here for a little over 1 year. Can I claim head of household?

Wouldn't try it. The "household" is a little on the loose side. No marriage, no kids, just a bunch of single people sharing a domicile.

No you can't. Even if you could claim your girlfriend as a dependent, that wouldn't qualify you to file as head of household, you'd have to have a dependent who was a closely related family member.


Wayne Z
No. You need a qualifying individual in the household to qualify for Head of Household.

You should each file as "Single".

No one in your residence can claim head of household, for two reasons. First, no one has a dependent child living with them, and second, no one paid over half the cost of maintaining the home.

Everyone files as single.

Get a Publication 17 and read the section on filing status and dependents; you can get one free by going to IRS.GOV and order forms. At first glance I would say "no" to your question but I would first have to quiz you and run the flow chart to be positive; that is why I advise the look-see at the Pub 17.

No, you can not.

No, you must provide more than 50% of another eligabe persons living expenses...food, housing, medical, etc. if your girlfriend or roommate had no income and you were supporting both of them you can use them as dependents or one of them if you were supporting one. in addition to the other answers.


Shop-o-holic
No :(
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.


~Poison Cupcakez~
No, you have to have a child and you have to pay over half of household expences.
