    When two unrelated adults live in a house with children, you have to determine if they are living as one family or two. In this case I would suspect they are living as one family and therefore there can only be one H of H. However if the two adults do not share child rearing responsiblities, do not eat dinner together as a family, do not share money, etc then each could be H of H if each provides more than 1/2 the ocst of their household respnosibilites.
    Yes, you expressed it much better than I did.
    You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be misquoted, then used against you.

        Neither can file HH because there are two income producing people in the house.

        . . . if there are two adults residing in the residence and both work and contribute to the household . . . neither qualifies for HH.
        Agree with Bees and others on this. I don't think I've seen where such a test applies. Could you possibly provide more info, please?
