artp Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 TP mother has 2 children from previous marriage, divorced in April 2022, has full custody, ex does not provide any support. Mother lived with new boyfriend all year. Mother's AGI $75,000, boyfriend $60,000. My understanding is if mother can prove she provided more the 1/2 cost of home and the chldren's support, she should be able to file as HOH and claim CTC. Correct?
