If you have more than one, maybe consider splitting them and you can both file as HOH.


This is also incorrect on a third level. Two people living in the same household cannot both file as head of household. One of the requirements for the head of household filing status is that you paid more than half the cost of keeping up the home for the year. You cannot both have paid more than half the cost. If one paid more than half, the other must have paid less than half. Only the one who paid more than half the cost can file as head of household, regardless of any other considerations.
