Hey, my partner and I live together but are not married. He made $68k and I made $22K last year. We have a child, who should claim the child for best return? TYIA!

There is no argument between us as to who should claim our kid. We both just want to maximize the return.

You would benefit from the Earned Income Credit but he would benefit by filing as Head of Household. You can try it both ways to compare.
