Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I'm in a somewhat similar situation.  My ex-wife and I divorced in January 2020.  I rented a house for myself and our daughter, but ex-wife has also been living here as well.  It was supposed to be temporary, but it's been a crazy year.  I pay all the household expenses, but my ex pays me half.  It sounds like I can claim Head of Household.  I'm also curious if she can as well.  I suppose it may be a challenge proving 50/50 split on expenses to the penny.  Also, do I have to pay >50% of the household expenses, or exactly 50%?

 

Thank you.
