Can my wife and I both claim Head of Household?
As I've only heard conflicting answers to this question from a multitude tax of professionals, I want to clarify one more time:
I have been married since 2017. My wife and I DO NOT live together, nor have we ever. We do not share children or finances, and we both have children of our own, in which we can claim as dependents. Can we both claim HoH, because of these factors? The IRS publication appears to consider you unmarried as of December 31st, if these factors are met. The Intuit site here also has the same guidelines. This is somewhat of an unorthodox situation, so I would love clarification. Thank you in advance!
