> we both claim “0” throughout the year, plus we have two kids. I claim head of household, and she cliams both kids, and the Earned Income Credit because she makes under 32k and claims two kids…thats a huge credit there. Plus the child care credit, we get back almost everything we pay her moms friend to watch the kids during the day. $30 a day, 3 days a week, for an entire year. Her mom takes them twice a week, and her moms friend used to run a daycare, but she stopped watching everyone elses kids but ours, so she is still licensed as a daycare

First let me say this is not aflame in any way.

Dude have you ever been audited?

Because my understanding of the tax laws, you have to have a dependent other than yourself to claim head of household. If you girl is claiming both kids, how can you claim head of household?

Really just looking to see how you did this so I can get more money back too…:bigok:
