As noted above - your post needs better articulation.
If your client is the mom and the child lives with the mom and she has released the dependency to the dad, then yes - she can file HOH (this assumes of course she meets all the other criteria).Comment

The date (new acceptable pronoun for dad no doubt) can claim CTC but not head of household filing status, the credit for child and dependent care expenses, dependent care benefits, the earned income credit, or the health credit. Mom (or should I say host) can claim HOH"Dude, you are correct" Rapid RobertComment
