发帖数: 144 | 1 夫妻因为工作两地分居，每个月相聚一星期
一年里住一起的时间肯定就少于6个月
能一个claim head of household
另一个claim married filed separately吗？
1040instruction上说要求：
“You lived apart from your spouse for the last 6 months of 2010. Temporary
absences for special circumstances, such as for business, medical care,
school, or military service, count as time lived in the home."
应为各自在不同城市工作的，算for business吗？
谢谢大家 | t******g

发帖数: 144 | 5 去年问过这个问题
今天再看看咋觉得好像不太对劲，请高人帮忙看看
夫妻两地工作的能一个报head of household另一个报married filed separately吗？
“Temporary absences for special circumstances, such as for business,
medical care, school, or military service, count as time lived in the home.
”岂不是说两地工作不能算“You lived apart from your spouse”???
非常感谢！

The "home" means your home, not your spouse's home.
我的理解是夫妻两地工作，除了6个月的限制，如果分别租房 and 负担自己的费用，而
且有小孩， 就可以算 lived apart from your spouse.But you must have at least
one qualifying person (parent or child) to claim as Head of Household. | b****e

"Your spouse cannot live with you at any time during the last six months of
the year"
基本上这后半年你们不能去对方的home，一个周末都不行。 所以你这种情况不能claim

发帖数: 3558 | 8 这个不太对吧。究竟什么人能file as "head of household" 刚才看了IRS的解释说，
" Generally, you may claim head of household filing status on your tax
return only if you are unmarried and pay more than 50% of the costs of
keeping up a home for yourself and your dependent(s) or other qualifying
individuals."

应该是说只有单亲家庭或者没结婚但要养父母的才可能算吧。
有谁真的试过结婚了，夫妻中一个file as "filing separately", 一个 as head of
household 成功的吗？ |
