Your post is confusing. You say you live with your mom and your child. Then you say your mom is filing as Head of Household. In order to file HOH, your mom has to claim a blood-related qualified dependent---such as your child or another child or related person who she supports. It is not enough for her to be the owner of the home or the person whose name is on a lease. If your mom claims your child as her qualified dependent, then you cannot also claim the child.
So....explain who all lives in the household and who is claiming whom. Your child's SSN cannot be entered on two tax returns. Did you have more than $4400 of income in 2022? Were you a full-time student? How old were you at the end of 2022?
If your child is the only "dependent" in the home then you might need to work the tax returns both ways to see how they come out better---with you or your mom claiming the child--- to see who gets more from the child tax credit, earned income credit, and perhaps the childcare credit.
And...why do you want to know your "household income?" Where is it asking you for that?
