| Subject | Tax Treatment of Child living with unmarried parents |
An unmarried couple live together with their child. Each is a professional person with a six-figure income. They own their home jointly and share all expenses. The child lives with them 100% of the time and all of the child’s expenses are shared. Both parent's names are on the child's birth certificate. Since they are not legally married, they cannot file a Married-Filing-Jointly tax return. Assuming no other factors, how does the IRS determine which of them can legally file as Head-of-Household and which must file as single? -- << ------------------------------------------------------- >> << The foregoing was not intended or written to be used, >> << nor can it used, for the purpose of avoiding penalties >> << that may be imposed upon the taxpayer. >> << >> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting posts >> << to this newsgroup as well as our anti-spamming policy >> << are at www.asktax.org. >> << Copyright (2011) - All rights reserved. >> << ------------------------------------------------------- >>
