Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Only one of you can claim the child and all the child related items if you live together.
If you are unmarried but live together with the child, either one of you can claim the child (or children) as dependents. If the parent who claims the child as a dependent also pays more than half the expenses of keeping up their home, they can file as head of household instead of single, which is slightly more favorable. The other parent should not even list them in Turbotax, because there are some poorly worded questions that confuse some people.
