Community College Rejected Tax Transcripts?

Do your parents live in the same household?

If so, is each claiming a different child?

If they are living together, I’m not sure that they can each file as “head of household”. I don’t think two different people can be “head of household” for the SAME household. I think the point of being HOH is that one person is the HOH.

But, maybe I’m wrong.

If one parent has to refile and lose the HOH, then it’s only fair that both parents “share” the expense of whatever taxes are owed. If a parent owes taxes it’s because they’ve been filing wrong…for many years. If they’ve been filing wrong for years, then they’ve been getting a tax benefit that they shouldn’t have been getting.

However, your parents don’t have to change anything…instead they can just pay for your schooling.
