Girlfriend and kid move in with boyfriend. Boyfriend owns the home free and clear. Boyfriend could rent the place for $3000 a month.
Girlfriend wants to claim head of household. She pays no rent. How does the fact that the boyfriend provides free rent impact her ability to claim head of household?
This is driving me nuts. She claims that she pays all utilities and food for all three, and clothing and all else for herself and child. Just seems that the free rent has to have some sort of impact on her paying more than half of the household expenses, must fit into the equation somehow.
Help.
