Hello. Could you please tell me if 2 family members live together ( neither being married), in a home with joint tenancy, and one family member claims the other as a dependent ( because they are paying more than 50% of household expenses for the previous year), would the other family member be qualified to claim the Circuit Breaker tax credit ( this family member pays the Real Estate property taxes, but pays less than 50% of other household expenses for the previous year)? Would you only be allowed to apply for either the Head of Household exemption OR the Circuit Breaker tax credit-but not both, even though one family member qualifies for the Head of household status and the other family member qualifies for the Circuit Breaker tax credit and both of these family members have lived in the same house for 2-3 years? Your help answering these questions would be very much appreciated.
Thank You
