What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? IL & WI
I just got married on 12/21/08. Husband & I are going to file separately for 2008 though. Can I still file as head of household for the year? He will be claiming his two kids, as he supported them & I will be claiming my son, as he was supported by me. He lived in WI last year & I in IL. It just seems to me that filing separately would make sense since our financial lives didn't combine until the last week of the year.
Any advice is apprciated... Thanks so much!!
