taxguy057 Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Got a client with a daughter that is 22 that lived with him but works on her own. Can he use her for HOH status without being a dependent and if so will it affect filing her own taxes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be able to find it easily in TAXBook, or even Pub 17. this rule is a couple of years old at least. Not like the good old days!!

Pacun Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 If she is a full time student MAYBE. But student could not claim her exemption (maybe father or mother could take exemption). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jainen Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 >>she is a full time student MAYBE<< Full time just means at least one day in each of five months. A lot of students graduate at age 22, and by the time April 15th of the following year comes around, they've put it all behind them and no longer consider themselves a qualifying child.
