Hi CatinaT1,
I would like to revisit the above subject, but will focus on "considered unmarried" this time.
There are 5 tests under "considered unmarried". Assume he/she passed first 3 tests. For test 4 - your home must be a home for your child ...
If he/she doesn't have a child at home, he/she then go to test - (home of qualifying person). If child is the only qualifying dependent, why list (home of qualifying person) in table 2? So relatives definitely are qualifying dependents.
If he/she passed the test of (home of qualifying person), he/she passed test 4.
For test 5, I don't think it is relevant for people who don't have a child. It is there for those who want to claim their child as their dependents. So don't need to do test5. Again, if everyone needs to do test 5, then why having (home of qualifying person) test?
So he/she passed the 4 tests, should he/she be "considered unmarried?"
Thank you.
