shydiva218 | Can two people live in the same household claim head of household on a income tax refund? |
If you are not married but live together could each person file seperately and both claim head odf household? Or can only 1 person from a household claim head of household? |

But if you are just house mates you can each claim head as your own household and file seperately, right? That is how I have done it in my life, with no problem. In fact in those days it never occurred to me to do it any other way - we were all just a bunch of college students sharing a big house.
Peace! |

Only one person from a house hold can claim to be the head of it. You should be claiming single unless there are children involved. |

The only way you could both claim head of household is if both of you have kids of your own and pay your own bills. At least here in Texas it is like that. But if its just 2 adults living together then only 1 can make the claim. |

Head of Household rules are as follows:
1.) The taxpayer must be unmarried at the end of the year. Or if married, must have NOT lived with their spouse for more than six months out of the year.
2.) The taxpayer paid more than half the cost of keeping up the home.
3.) The home was the pricipal residence for more than half the year of either.....the taxpayers qualifying child or the taxpayers qualifying relative.
4.) The taxpayer is a US citizen or resident for the entire year.
It is because of Rule #2 that the answer to your question is No. Two people cannot claim the head of household filing status on a tax return in the same year for the same residence. You have to have paid "more than half" of the cost of maintaining the entire home to be head of household and in order for that to be true, only one person could have paid "more than half".
Hope that helps explain it. Good Luck! |

only one person can file as head of household, but if your not married and you use to different addresses then it might work out. |

Legally, only one of you should claim head of household. |

you can only claim head of the household if you have dependents or own the house, here's an example
If a person living with you owns the house you live in and he has no dependents or has dependents, he can claim h of h
if he doesn't own the house but has kids he can still claim h of h
if he doesn't own the house, has kids but they are with his ex and she is claiming them, he can't claim h of h
same goes for you
you will file separately and you both can be h of h if above applies.
So as long as you're not legally married you both can be h of h, now if the two of you have kids together only one of you can claim them, what you can do is you can claim one kid and he can claim an other kid, but in this case you can't live under the same roof......there's millions of ways to do this |

Some of you guys are going to end up owing the IRS a lot of money.. Only one person can claim head of household. Go to IRS site and order Publication 17. it tells you all the basics you need to know about your income taxes. and it is free. |
